Edmund Dulac, a prominent artist of the period, created them for books published between 1905 and 1928. Their moods range from the shadowy foreboding of \u003ci\u003eJane Eyre\u003c\/i\u003e to the venturesome spirits of \u003ci\u003eTreasure Island \u003c\/i\u003eand the lighthearted fantasies of \u003ci\u003eA Fairy Garland. \u003c\/i\u003eOther featured titles include Shakespeare's \u003ci\u003eThe Tempest, The Arabian Nights, The Rub iy t of Omar Khayyam, \u003c\/i\u003eand the fairy tales of Hans Christian Andersen.\u003cbr\u003eFrench-born Edmund Dulac arrived in London in 1904, when new advances in the printing process kindled a rage for picture books. Dulac's imaginative powers and technical skills assured the popularity of his book illustrations, many of which were sold separately as fine art paintings. After World War I, when the appetite for deluxe volumes waned, the artist turned his talents in many new directions, including portraiture, theatrical costume and set design, newspaper caricature, and stamp design. This retrospective of his early works is the only such anthology available, offering a singular tribute to an artist from a halcyon era of art inspired by literature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dover Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/16\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780486479118\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 113\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.03lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.93h x 8.39w x 0.32d","brand":"Edmund Dulac","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36637857874076,"sku":"9780486479118","price":21.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_0575c30b-e45c-46f7-bfc6-6c47de898688.jpg?v=1603845859","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/an-edmund-dulac-treasury-116-color-illustrations-9780486479118","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
