A prominent figure in the Victorian art world, Walter Crane not only participated in the publishing revolution of the late nineteenth century, but also led the way toward what is now known as the Golden Age of Illustration.
Crane was instrumental in the transition from the simple black-and-white illustrations common for children's books at the time, to gallery-quality artwork. This original collection features more than one hundred of this influential artist's wonderfully rendered images. It constitutes an in-depth exploration of his paintings and presents a visual history of the development of the Golden Age.
Few artists of Crane's generation achieved careers as varied and successful as his. This compilation reflects the diversity of Crane's subjects, from illustrations for children's literature, nursery rhymes, and fairy tales, to scenes from King Arthur, Robin Hood and the classics of Shakespeare, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Edmund Spenser.
Editor and phenomenally successful artist, Jeff A. Menges provides an introduction that places Walter Crane and his works in historic context.
