By John Bauer.
Bauer (1882-1918) illustrated the work of almost every well-known Swedish storyteller. The best of these are represented in this collection. We love his clumsy, strangely natural looking trolls, his shining, other-worldly princesses, and his mysterious deep forest backgrounds. This is one of the best collections of Bauer's work yet. 86 illustrations, most in color and many full page. Over 20 stories are here, including "The Magician's Cape" by Anna Wahlenberg, "The Seven Wishes" by Alfred Smedberg, and "The Ring" by Helena Nyblom. A must for fans of superb illustration and fairy tales. Import.
