The back pages feature Beauty traveling through the forest toward the Beast and then later, waking in fright when she knows she’s been away from him for too long. The double-page artwork is fine and intricate, with gorgeous, lush detailing that draws you into the story. The nearly pristine illustration measures 10 3/4″ by 8 1/4″. The pages are clean with slightly rounded corners and minor creasing where it was attached to the the spine. Framed and matted these minor imperfections in the margin would not be seen. Vintage prints are always the perfect decorating choice for any room in your home or office. The illustration would also be great for use in your collage, mixed media or altered art projects. The Johnstones were British children’s book illustrators best known for their delicate, detailed artwork who made names for themselves after illustrating the classic “The Hundred and One Dalmatians.” Their prolific art made them the most widely recognized illustrators of children’s books in England, and Dean’s Fairy Tales is one of their more popular works.
