A compilation of Brothers Grimm fairy tales complete with
vintage illustrations This book brings together approximately two dozen of the
most beloved of the classic Grimm fairy tales, including all
the classics, such as Cinderella, Snow White, Sleeping
Beauty, and Hansel and Gretel in an all-new translation
specially commissioned for this publication. Containing a
painstakingly-researched selection of artwork by some of the
most famous illustrators from the 1850s to the
1950s—including Golden Age legend Kay Nielsen, beloved
bestselling author Wanda Gág (of "Millions of Cats," 1928),
British darlings Walter Crane and Arthur Rackham, and giants
of nineteenth century German illustration Hermann Vogel,
Otto Speckter, and Viktor Paul Mohn—this compilation also
includes beautiful silhouettes culled from original
publications from the 1920s that run throughout the entire
layout. For adults and children alike, this collection
brings to life the magic of fairy tales and their illustrations.
