Dulac's Illustrations for Hans Christian Andersen's Fairy Tales by Edmund Dulac

One of the greatest book illustrators of his time, Edmund Dulac (1882 1953) was also one of the most prolific and impressive artists of the early twentieth century. Covering a wide range of themes and styles, his work is characterized by the strong personalities of his figures and the elaborate backgrounds and shading of his scenes. He remains, today, among the most popular of recent illustrators.
