I am just wrapping up a series of Grimm's tales, illustrated by Arthur Rackham. Rather discouraged, though --- the third and last in the sequence, Little Brother and Little Sister & Others, only seems to be available as a collection of smallish unhappy JPEG images at University of Florida Digital Collection. So I have been googling madly for better images, and only moderately successful.
Also simultaneously working on Rackham's illustrated selected tales of Hans Andersen. Illustrations for this one are even sadder.
I thoroughly applaud the vision of the book scanners, trying to preserve all these old books, but where is their respect for the ILLUSTRATIONS??? !!!
I ask you, what is the world coming to?
