Fairy-Tale Files, published once weekly, feature three variations of a fairy tale chosen by one of Fairy Tale Review’s Assistant Editors.

Oleg Oprisco, a photographer working out of Kiev, imagines a surreal, captivating Rapunzel.

Kirsty Mitchell’s series of portraits entitled Wonderland (the costumes and props all designed by hand) attempts to capture the wonder of the stories her mother told her as a child.

In this early variant of the fairy tale from the Persian epic Shahnameh, the princess Rudaba lets down her hair so that Zal may climb up and reach her.

This edition of Fairy-Tale Files is brought to you by Fairy Tale Review Assistant Editor Tommy Mira y Lopez.
