"Grimm's Märchen" (1905)

 

Illustrated by Heinrich Lefler and Joseph Urban

 

"Grimm's Märchen" (1905) contains wonderful examples of Jugendstil (the German Art Nouveau movement) illustrations from Lefler and Urban.

 

The pair's masterful interpretation of fairy tales within "Grimm's Märchen" (1905) is an absolute joy to behold and - as may be expected from

Lefler and Urban - the illustrations are sumptuously decorated with applied gold and silver.

 

It is believed that the illustrations for "Grimm's Märchen" later formed the basis of another Lefler and Urban rarity, "Märchen Kalender" (1905).

 

"Grimm's Märchen" (1905) includes the following tales:

 

•  Schneewitchen (Snow White);

•  Die Kleine Seejungfrau (The Little Mermaid);

•  Aschenbrödel (Cinderella);

•  Hänsel und Gretel (Hansel and Gretel);

•  Das Gänsemädchen (The Goose Girl);

•  Marienkind (Our Lady's Child; or, Mary's Child);

•  Schwan kleb'an (Swan, hold on);

•  Schneeweisschen und Rosenrot (Snow White and Rose Red);

•  Gevatter Tod (The Godfather's Death);

•  Der Froschkönig (The Frog Prince);

•  Rapunzel; and

•  Dornröschen (Little Briar Rose; or, Sleeping Beauty).

 

First Edition copies of "Grimm's Märchen" - are delicate and rare. They are highly regarded by collectors and enthusiasts alike.

Rear of Greeting Card

(with envelope)

 

When presented on Greeting Cards, these images are prepared as tipped-on plates - in 'hommage' to the hand-crafted

approach typical of prestige illustrated publications produced in the early decades of the 20th Century. Each card is

hand-finished and the images are presented on Ivory card stock with an accompanying envelope. The rear of each card

carries information about Lefler and Urban, this wonderful suite and the profiled illustration - we have left the interior of

the cards blank so that you may write your own personal message.

 

Should you wish to order a reproduction print of one or more of these images, we have provided some options below.

Each of our Fine Art Posters is prepared with archival quality papers and inks - and also accompanied by information

about Lefler and Urban, this suite and the profiled illustration.

 

To purchase, simply click on the appropriate "Add to Cart" button and you will be taken through to our Shopping Cart

secured through PayPal. Multiple purchases will be consolidated by that feature and shipping and handling costs to any

destination in the world are accommodated by our flat-rate fee of US$20 for every US$200 worth of purchases.

 

We are able to reproduce these images in a variety of sizes and naturally, should you wish to order a Fine Art Poster

in another format or individual Greeting Cards from this suite of images, we welcome your contact through ThePeople@SpiritoftheAges.com.

 

In the meantime, enjoy perusing these wonderful images from Lefler and Urban.
