Children's Literature and Illustration
The first illustration is one i love the most, its simple, clean, colourful and has amazing illustrations. This was illustrated by Kate Greenaway in the 1800's, it portrays tender attitude, cuteness, innocence, fantasy, sentimentality and entertainment/fun. I'm fascinated with Kate Greenaway's work because of all her works key characteristics, the detail but simple and clean effect on them is the style I'm into the most. The second illustration "Hey Daddy" where the dish runs away with the spoon below is done by Randolf Caldecott in the 1900's, its a tale that personified spoons, plates, cats making music. Its colours and shapes used are very simple and clean. I'm interested in things that are simple yet very well thought of and in this was nicely done.
The last image is a modern illustration done by David Delamare, called "Humpty Dumpty" a remarkably detailed and truly elegant illustration. This one comes from the use of Lithophane.
