Synopsis
This monograph examines the work of the illustrator, Arthur Rackham, and traces his achievements. Rackham's illustrations for such works as "Rip Van Winkle", "Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens", "Alice in Wonderland" and "A Midsummer Night's Dream" have attained the classic status of the writings themselves - indeed, in some cases - they have become synonymous with them. Rackham himself, however, has previously remained a shadowy figure.

Arthur Rackham: A Life with Illustration
Seller: HORSE BOOKS PLUS LLC, Boston, VA, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: Near Fine. No Jacket. First Edition. Oversized paperback measuring just under 12" tall x 9" wide showing light crease on upper cover tip and bumped foot of spine. No writing, soil or tears, the 199 semi-gloss leaves are crisp and appear unused. Light creases on cover. Examining the work of the illustrator Arthur Rackham, this monograph traces his achievements throughout his illustrious career. Rackham's illustrations for such works as Alice in Wonderland, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens, and Rip Van Winkle have attained the classic status of the writings themselves?and indeed, in some cases, they have become synonymous with them. His works were also included in numerous exhibitions in his lifetime, including one at the Louvre in Paris in 1914. Rackham himself, however, has previously remained a shadowy figure. As well as featuring exquisite illustrations and sketches, extracts from Rackham's correspondence and insightful commentary shed new light on this much-collected illustrator. Seller Inventory # 49288
