As treasured today as they will undoubtedly be for generations to
come, Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales are cornerstones of our
collective consciousness as much as of the Western literary canon.
From The Ugly Duckling to The Little Mermaid and The Emperor's New
Clothes, this beautifully presented collection shares the eternal
magic of these stories with a selection of eight tales, each
illustrated with sparkling vintage artwork from the 1890s to the
1980s. True to the international appeal of the stories, the
featured artists hail from Scandinavia to Japan and include such
greats as Kay Nielsen, Josef Palecek, Tom Seidmann-Freud (niece of
Sigmund Freud), and the groundbreaking film animator Lotte
Reiniger. The collection also features historic and contemporary
silhouettes, a presentation of Andersen's immense legacy, brief
historical introductions to each fairy tale, as well as a set of
stickers of favorite motifs. A treasure for the whole family, this
precious edition inspires and enchants as much as the mystical,
magical worlds of Andersen's imagination. The following fairy tales
are featured in the book: The Princess and the Pea, The
Nightingale, The Little Mermaid, The Emperor's New Clothes, The
Steadfast Tin Soldier, The Snow Queen, The Ugly Duckling, The
Tinderbox.
