Pook Press celebrates the great Golden Age of Illustration in children's literature. Many of the earliest children's books, particularly those dating back to the 1850s 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. Kay Nielsen (1886-1957) was a Danish illustrator of the golden age of illustration. He was influenced by Japanese art and the Swedish fairy tale illustrator John Bauer and contributed to the Art Nouveau movement. His illustrations are bold, and vibrant - often reproduced by a 4-colour process which set him apart from his contemporaries who typically used a 3-colour process. His art is characterised by long, swooping lines, open spaces and a certain macabre quality and his ephemeral illustrations are intricately inventive, flirting with implausibility. The shift in taste from fantasy to realism after WWII meant that Nielsen did not retain his pre-war popularity. However, interest in his exquisite illustrations has since been revived, and they now command a high price in today's art world.

Fifteen stories from Norwegian folklore illustrated by Kay Nielsen including: East of the Sun and West of the Moon -- The Blue Belt -- Prince Lindworm -- The Lassie and her Godmother -- The Husband who was to Mind the House -- The Lad who went to the North Wind -- The Three Princesses fo White Land -- Sorie Moria Castle -- The Giant who had no Heart in his Body -- The Princess on the Glass Hill -- The Widow's Son -- The Three Billy Goats Gruff -- The Three Princesses in the Blue Mountain -- The Cat on the Dovrefell -- One's own Children are Always Prettiest.
