At age twenty-five, Arthur Rackham (English, 1867-1939) left his London clerk job to forge a career for himself as an illustrator. After a period of selling illustrations to London newspapers and news magazines, he received his first commission to work on a children’s book, The Zankiwank and the Bletherwitch, in 1896. Free of the restraints of serious journalism, he gave his imagination free rein and began developing the style that would make him one of the most sought-after illustrators of his day. Peter Pan, Aesop’s Fables, Alice in Wonderland, The Wind in the Willows--virtually all the classic children’s tales were illustrated by Rackham at some point in his career. His illustrations created a comfortable fantasy world that appealed to children and parents alike, conveying the innocence of youth and keeping the troubles of the real world at bay . . . for at least a few more pages.
