Luckily, the illustrations were all in nice shape with only light yellowing to the paper and no stains, tears or marks.Art of Narrativehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13361785503164857781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-942679790176966125.post-1432131891466074652013-02-06T09:50:25.819-05:002013-02-06T09:50:25.819-05:00The images are incredible. would it be possible to...The images are incredible. would it be possible to add the front cover too? i saw it in small dimensions & it would be so nice to see it as big as the ones here. many thanks for sharing :)oceanblueeyes87https://www.blogger.com/profile/05048921476908143242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-942679790176966125.post-58362051143915384682013-01-31T10:48:03.933-05:002013-01-31T10:48:03.933-05:00Saw this on Tumblr, so glad I came to see the rest...Saw this on Tumblr, so glad I came to see the rest of the illustrations.

I'm not sure how I came across this one, but once I became aware of it, I had to find a copy. I love these illustrations, and the story, which I had never fully read before, makes me feel sad for her. I plan to seek out the most original of this Andersen tale, to see if the religious component and her longing for an immortal soul appears as a motivation in the earliest versions. I'd like to think it is love and love alone that caused her sacrifice, and that Andersen left the reader to their own thoughts about her search for happiness, and the inimitable value of her love.Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12588164536314320479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-942679790176966125.post-46724356136570652832012-12-31T13:16:45.811-05:002012-12-31T13:16:45.811-05:00These are wondrous and lovely.

I wonder if there exists a comprehensive bibliography of each golden age illustrator, so as to provide a "shopping list" of books to search forThomas Haller Buchananhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09278003392092477845noreply@blogger.com
