Winter’s tales

Words Karen Darlow Illustration Universal History Archive/Getty Images

Yes, there is ice and snow in that glorious land,” the reindeer told her.’ This image from The Snow Queen, first published in Stories from Hans Andersen (1911), captures the warmth of Gerda’s love and her gratitude to the reindeer who helps her to rescue her childhood friend from the Snow Queen. It’s by French-born Edmund Dulac, one of the most celebrated illustrators of the early 20th century. His interpretations of the works of Shakespeare, the Brontës and The Arabian Nights put him in great demand with London’s illustrated book publishers. When this work declined after World War I, Dulac diversified into theatre costume and set design, and even designed postage stamps.
