Tales of fantasy

Jenks, Tudor, 1857-1922, ed · 1902 · Boston, Hall and Locke Company · 103 pictures

Tudor Jenks edited this 1902 Boston collection of children's stories, published by the Hall and Locke Company and held by the New York Public Library. The four pictures are black-and-white line illustrations in a late nineteenth-century storybook manner, with a man holding up a blank sheet beside a woman, a seated couple framed in an arched border, a crowned queen beside a bearded knight, and a figure with a broom chasing an old woman down steps. A designer might borrow their simple contour linework, arched vignette framing, and lively folk-tale gestures.
