"The Sleeping Beauty" retold by C.S. Evans and illustrated by Arthur Rackham William Heinemann, London - 1920 First UK edition of this uniquely illustrated Rackham fairy tale, with 19 full-page and 41 in-text silhouettes (several with color), and mounted color frontispiece - condition: about fine copy, bright copy, complete with tipped-in frontipsiece and all silhouette ill. present, housed in mylar cover "Rackham's fanciful imagination gave his illustrations instant recognition, and his dedication to illustration kept him in the public eye for 30 years" (Hodnett, 233). Like his Cinderella (1919), The Sleeping Beauty relied "almost wholly for [its] effect on silhouette… Rackham [was] a master of the medium, being able to evoke character and humor by profile and gesture alone, and allowing the two-dimensional effect of his pen work to lead the reader through the book and keep the story going" (Hamilton, 118).
