This book sheds a unique light on children’s book illustration, wishing to demonstrate that these illustrations that so often accompany a children’s book are in fact pieces of art themselves. The book provides a foreword by Andrea Rose, Director of Visual Arts of The British Council, an introduction by Quentin Blake and an essay by Joanna Carey which provides a history of children’s book illustration and exposes the reader to many examples from recent and much older texts. Then each illustrator provides a brief autobiography related to illustration and some full colour illustrations. A must read for those studying children’s books. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
This highly illustrated new book features the work of thirteen of the top children's book illustrators working in the UK today. Each chapter contains a commentary by the illustrator, introducing their work and explaining how they started to illustrate children's books, and shows several original artworks by each illustrator. Quentin Blake's introduction reflects on the complexities of providing an illustrative response to the characters and activities of a writer. Joanna Carey, formerly Children's Book Editor of The Guardian, contributes an illustrated essay on the history of children's book illustration, from the work of Cruikshank, Ardizonne, and Walter Crane, to the instantly recognisable pictures from Winnie the Pooh and the tales of Beatrix Potter. The illustrators featured are: Angela Barrett, Quentin Blake, Lauren Child, Patrick Benson, Raymond Briggs, Sara Fanelli, Stephen Biesty, John Burningham, Michael Foreman, Tony Ross, Posy Simmonds, Emma Chichester Clark, and Charlotte Voake.
