Produktbeschreibung
Illustrated Children's Books is a celebration of the power of the picture-book and its great ability to capture the imaginations of children and adults alike. With a Foreword by Anthony Browne, Illustrated Children's Books takes us on a visual journey through the history of this unique medium. From Struwwelpeter to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, from Dogger to Angelina Ballerina, the book explores old favorites as well as showcasing cutting-edge new talent, and shines a light on the printing processes, design formats and character illustrations of some of the best loved children's books from the past 250 years. Peter Hunt follows the early development of illustrated books in his essay on the first appearances of literature for children, up until the mid-1940s, and Lisa Sainsbury picks up the trail and traces the history of the picture-book in her essay from 1945 to the present day. Featuring profiles on esteemed authors and illustrators, including Richard Scarry, Quentin Blake and Mini Grey, Illustrated Children's Books is a testament to the lasting impression picture-books place in our imagination, and our memories of them.
