This collection -- featuring the best examples of design, illustration, and calligraphy from the artist's early career -- returns a long-neglected master illustrator to the public eye.\u003cbr\u003eThe Hungarian-born artist studied in Paris and worked in London for a decade before his arrival in the United States in 1915. In addition to his successes as a muralist, set designer, and art instructor, Pogány illustrated more than 100 books. This is the first collection of his selected works, featuring many hard-to-find images that have been out of print for more than 80 years. More than 100 color and black-and-white illustrations include scenes from fairy tales and adventure stories such as Wagner's \"Ring\" cycle of \u003ci\u003eParsifal, Lohengrin, \u003c\/i\u003eand\u003ci\u003e Tannh\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eäuser.\u003c\/i\u003e Other sources of inspiration include a 1908 edition of \u003ci\u003eFaust, \u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eGulliver's Travels, \u003c\/i\u003eand\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003eNathaniel Hawthorne's \u003ci\u003eA Wonder Book \u003c\/i\u003eand\u003ci\u003e Tanglewood Tales.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"Dover","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46356541472940,"sku":"9780486470467","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/6626\/7820\/files\/4954483482361.jpg?v=1781639958","url":"https:\/\/giftshop.carlemuseum.org\/products\/9780486470467","provider":"The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
