Item Details

Description

1916 1ed Allies Fairy Book Arthur Rackham ART Sleeping Beauty Jack the Giant Killer

â€œThe Allies Fairy Book” is a collection of traditional fairy tales from World War One participants, compiled and edited by Edmund Gosse in 1916. The book features a diverse selection of stories, including English, Scotch, Welsh, Irish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Russian, Serbian, and Belgian tales, notably â€œSleeping Beauty” and â€œJack the Giant Killer.”

However, the true charm of the book lies in Arthur Rackhams enchanting illustrations that elevate the stories to a whole new level. Rackham, a celebrated painter of the British Golden Age of Illustration, blends haunting humor with dream-like romance, creating a unique artistic style that perfectly complements Gosses anthology. The combination of these captivating tales and Rackhams incredible illustrations makes this book a true treasure.
