Seller: Ergodebooks, Houston, TX, U.S.A.
Hardcover. Condition: new. Step into a world of star-crossed lovers, magical winds, mischievous giants, and trolls, through some of the most exquisite illustrations in publishing history. In this gorgeous reprint, TASCHEN revives the most ambitious publication project of beloved Danish artist Kay Nielsen, one of the most famous childrens book illustrators of all time.First published in 1914, East of the Sun and West of the Moon is a celebrated collection of fifteen fairy tales, gathered by legendary Norwegian folklorists Peter Christen Asbjrnsen and Jrgen Engebretsen Moe on their journeys across Norway in the mid-nineteenth century. Nielsens illustration edition of Asbjrnsen and Moes tales is considered a jewel of early 20th-century children's literature, highly sought-after by art and book collectors worldwide. An original signed copy of the book sold at auction in 2008 commanded the highest price ever paid for an illustrated childrens book.This finely crafted reprint restores the stunning detail and artistry of Nielsens images to their original splendor. Featuring 46 illustrations, including many enlarged details from Nielsens rare original watercolors, the book is printed in five colors. Three accompanying essays, illustrated with dozens of rare and previously unseen artworks by Nielsen, explore the history of Norwegian folktales, Nielsens life and work, and how this masterpiece came to be.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. Nielsen Kay. East of the sun and west of the moon : old tales from the North / illustrated by Kay Nielsen. London: Hodder and Stoughton, s.d. [1914]. Hardback, Good, no dustjacket. Blue cloth, sunned to spine, rubbed in places, with various marks and stains including evidence of old damp damage to rear. Boards bumped to corners and top/base of spine. Binding good and intact but not firm, with a forward lean and weakness to rear hinge. Fep with previous owner name and address. Frontispiece colour illustration tipped in. Decorated title page. 284pp. with very beautiful tipped-in colour and b/w illustrations and decorations throughout. Contents clean and bright. East of the Sun comprises fifteen stoical and weirdly moving Norwegian folktales, boasting names like "Prince Lindworm," and "The Giant Who Had No Heart in His Body." The stories came hard-won from the folklorists Peter Christen Asbjørnsen and Jørgen Engebretsen Moe, who had spent years in the mid-nineteenth century journeying across the fjords to remote fishing, farming, and mining villages to transcribe the local lore. A cast of trolls, ogres, and witches roots the stories clearly in Norse pagan mythology. In 1914, the London publishing house Hodder & Stoughton decided to release a lavish, gift-book edition of the tales under the title East of the Sun and West of the Moon; they tapped Nielsena Dane, ironically, though by then no one seems to have minded muchto contribute illustrations. He contributed a series of watercolors and pen-and-ink drawings that are arguably his finest work. "The contrast between the seemingly endless winter and the suddenness of spring was the world of Nielsen's upbringing," White writes, "and he remembered it in his illustrations The breadth of Nielsen's invention can be seen in the many incidental touches." His drawings are for the most part flat; their depth comes from their dusky, warm colors and patterns. And his figures are almost stereotypically Nordic: pale and idealized, somewhat androgynous. RightWayUp Books aims to provide accurate and detailed descriptions. All images are of the actual book for sale - no stock images are ever used. Thank you for looking at this listing.
