From Michael Babcock: “Much of Susan’s work in the 1970’s reflects the world of fairy tales and fantasy. Unicorns were an oft-recurring subject during this time, a fantasy substitute for the horses that were her first subjects growing up on the farm in Brazil. Unicorns appeared either as a central image or as a a smaller background image in roughly 10% of her work at the time and were some of the most popular of the first of her published images… Many of her pieces portrayed the unicorn and a maiden, a motif dating back to medieval times and found in tapestries, paintings and bestiaries. It was believed that only young maidens were capable of capturing and taming the elusive creature".
TPG: In the distance we can see a “Blessing” of unicorns, the term used to describe a group of the magical, mythical beasts. On the right one Unicorn watches proudly over the group and on the left, the maiden, a symbol of innocence and purity, waits patiently for the opportunity capture one.
