Описание: This wonderful book of English Fairy Tales was collected and adapted by Flora Annie Steel in 1918. It includes the tales 'Tom-Tit-Tot', 'Jack the Giant Killer', 'Tattercoats', 'Jack and the Beanstalk', 'Catskin', 'The Three Little Pigs', 'Dick Whittington and his Cat', 'The Little Red Riding Hood', 'Babes in the Wood' and many more. This edition of 'English Fairy Tales' is accompanied throughout by a series of dazzling colour and black and white illustrations - by the master of the craft; Arthur Rackham (1867-1939). One of the most celebrated painters of the British Golden Age of Illustration (which encompassed the years from 1850 until the start of the First World War), Rackham's artistry is quite simply, unparalleled. Throughout his career, he developed a unique style, combining haunting humour with dream-like romance. Presented alongside the text, his illustrations further refine and elucidate these wonderful fairy tales. Pook Press celebrates the great 'Golden Age of Illustration' in children's literature - a period of unparalleled excellence in book illustration from the 1880s to the 1930s. Our collection showcases classic fairy tales, children's stories, and the work of some of the most celebrated artists, illustrators and authors. |
