This book 'Queen Summer Or The Tourney Of The Lily And The Rose'
was written and illustrated by Walter Crane and originally
published in 1891. In the form of an epic poem about the
allegorical figure Queen Summer its extensive colour illustrations
are enchantingly neoclassical in style. The book is similar to some
of Crane's masques which he wrote to be performed by the Arts and
Crafts Guild and some of which are also published by Pook Press.
Many of the earliest children's books, particularly those dating
back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and
increasingly expensive. Pook Press are working to republish these
classic works in affordable, high quality, colour editions, using
the original text and artwork so these works can delight another
generation of children. About the Illustrator: Walter Crane
(1845-1915) was one of the earliest contributors to children's
literature and one of the most influential illustrators in the
development of children's colour picture books. Crane began working
for Edmund Evans in 1864 producing bright, colourful books which
revolutionised the type of children's books available. He created a
series of 'Toy Books' between 1865-1875 which contained fairy
stories, nursery rhymes and other tales of adventures. His Arts and
Crafts illustrations came to typify children's books for decades to
come.
