Ivan Bilibin. Selected fairy tales in the artist's illustrations
29.99 €
This book contains fairy tales illustrated by the outstanding Russian artist Ivan Yakovlevich Bilibin (1876-1942). His first significant work was Pushkin's The Tale of Tsar Saltan. This fairy tale with its colorful pictures of Russian life gave rich food for Bilibin's imagination. This edition includes three Pushkin's fairy tales: "The Tale of Tsar Saltan", "The Tale of the Golden Cockerel" and "The Tale of the Fisherman and the Fish". In 1925, the artist came to France, where he continued to develop his style, which became known abroad as "style rues". The French publishing house "Flammarion" released several fairy tales with his illustrations, which harmoniously combine color and black-and-white drawings. The book includes two fairy tales from this cycle: "The Little Mermaid" and "The Plane Carpet". In full measure Bilibin's talent was revealed when working on Russian folk tales. Seven Russian folk tales are included in this book. Bilibin hoped that "...will be created, finally, a new Russian style, quite individual and not mishuristic. Children's books designed by the artist had a huge impact on the design culture of his time, and for many years the perception of Russian fairy tales became largely Bilibin's.
