Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Nielsen, Kay (illustrator). First Edition. First Studio-Viking Edition. First published by Viking in 1981 (A Studio Book). Reproduction from extremely rare donated example to Metropolitan Museum of Art of original Hodder & Stoughton, London, deluxe gift book design of 1924. Blue boards w/patterned embossed crowns, green cloth spine wrap, gilt stamped spine titles, moderate shelf wear. Heavy stock pages fine. Bind fine; hinges intact, ft. starting. Twelve color plates with captions along w/more than thirty monotone illustrations. Brilliant color images were prepared with integrated formal and informal borders; the informal borders are displayed in mille fleur. Full-page illustrations greet at each story w/richly detailed decoration throughout. Dj moderate chip; unclipped 14.95, protected in new clear sleeve. New, original jacket design by Gael Towey Dillon. Collection of eleven classic tales includes: The Tinder Box; The Real Princess; The Hardy Tin Soldiers; The Flying Trunk; Ole Luk-Oie; The Swineherd; The Nightingale; The Snow Queen; The Shepherdess and the Chinmey-Sweeper; The Elder Tree Mother; and, The Story of a Mother. Initiated by Nielsen in 1912 and first published in 1924. Hodder & Stoughton resumed publishing gift books w/illustrious artistic design, decoration and fine bindings in effort to resume this genre following World War I. Considered one of Hodder & Stoughton's very best designs from the Golden Age of Illustration, and in the most rare and desirable oversize form. Kay Rasmus Nielsen is regarded, with Arthur Rackham and Edmund Dulac, as a master of gift book illustration. He was born in Copenhagen of distinguished theatrical parents in 1886. In 1904, after considering a medical career, he left for Paris to pursue his passion for art, studying under J. P. Laurens at the Académie Julian. His greatest influences as a student were the Japanese woodcuts of Hokusai and Utamaro, and the black and white decorative line work of Aubrey Beardsley. He was lured from the profession of book illustration by Walt Disney, for whom he became an animator in 1939. Nielsen remained in Hollywood working as an actor, director, designer and muralist until passing in 1957. Printed in the USA w/color plates printed in Japan by Dai Nippon Printing, Co., Tokyo. 155 pages. Insured post. Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Book.
