Arthur Rackham
Arthur Rackham (19 September 1867 – 6 September 1939) was an English book illustrator. He is recognised as one of the leading figures during the Golden Age of British book illustration. His work is noted for its robust pen and ink drawings, which were combined with the use of watercolour, a technique he developed due to his background as a journalistic illustrator.Rackham's 51 colour pieces for the early American tale ''Rip Van Winkle'' became a turning point in the production of books since – through colour-separated printing – it featured the accurate reproduction of colour artwork. His best-known works also include the illustrations for ''Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens'', and ''Fairy Tales of the Brothers Grimm''. Provided by Wikipedia
