Die Kleine Seejungfrau (1953) (The Little Mermaid)
Illustrated by Sulamith Wülfing
For Die Kleine Seejungfrau, Wülfing turned her unique style towards a visual interpretation of the classic tale from Hans Christian Andersen, "The Little Mermaid".
Her suite of illustrations for this low volume publication included 8 colour images and a further 8 monotone illustrations that captured seminal moments within the tale in a simply gorgeous manner. |

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 and the images are presented on Ivory card stock (in the case of colour illustrations) or White card stock (in the case of monotone illustrations) with an accompanying envelope. The rear of each card carries information about Sulamith Wülfing, 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 Sulamith Wülfing, this suite and the profiled illustration.
