I wanted to create a story with this image. I'm drawing on many stories and fairy tales from The Frog Prince to Ulysses' encounter with Circe in The Odyssey to clue the viewer into what might be going on here. A shadowy sorceress is seen here with a few of her accoutrements. It's not a large leap to guess that this frog of unusual size may have not always been a frog. But who's that in the mist beyond? Is it someone spying upon her activities or an unfortunate soul forced to come and keep their end of a bargain?

This really makes you wonder about how the frog and the woman met and what their relationship is like. Because I can't imgine this woman (this is Circe from the Odyssey, you said?) crying over a lost golden toy. But what about the frog? Has he decided to leave the princess from the Fairy Tale and moved on with his life to meet Circe? Or was she the one who enchanted him...? Hmmm... 
I love pictures with a story like this.
