This lot includes two beautifully illustrated books by the acclaimed artist Edmund Dulac, showcasing his enchanting and distinctive style.

  • Edmund Dulac’s Picture Book: Published by Hodder and Stoughton, this collection brings together Dulac's captivating illustrations in a variety of themes, featuring his unique approach to fantasy and folklore. Bound in blue cloth with an elegant gilt decoration on the cover, this book is an excellent example of Dulac’s work during the early 20th century.
  • Tanglewood Tales by Nathaniel Hawthorne: Also published by Hodder and Stoughton, this edition features illustrations by Dulac that bring Hawthorne’s retelling of Greek myths to life. The brown cloth cover with red and gilt illustrations adds a classic touch, capturing the essence of the mythological stories within.

These books are ideal for collectors of illustrated books or fans of Dulac’s imaginative art, each volume showcasing the artist’s remarkable attention to detail and mastery of color.
