EDITORS COMMENTS
Mariette Lydis: A Visionary Artist and Illustrator Mariette Lydis (1887-1970), born in Vienna, was a renowned book illustrator and painter whose works continue to captivate audiences with their enchanting beauty and intricate detail. Her artistic journey began in her early years, as she was encouraged by her family to pursue her passion for drawing and painting. Lydis's unique style was influenced by the Art Nouveau movement, which was popular during her formative years. Her illustrations were characterized by their ethereal, dreamlike quality, often featuring delicate floral motifs, fantastical creatures, and otherworldly landscapes. These illustrations were not only visually stunning but also deeply imaginative, transporting readers to new and fantastical realms. Throughout her career, Lydis produced illustrations for a wide range of books, including works by famous authors such as Hans Christian Andersen, Charles Perrault, and the Brothers Grimm. Her most famous works, however, were her illustrations for the fairy tales of the Austrian writer, Wilhelm Hauff. These illustrations brought Hauff's stories to life in a way that captivated both children and adults. Despite her success as a book illustrator, Lydis remained a devoted painter throughout her life. Her paintings were equally enchanting, with their rich colors and intricate details. She often painted landscapes, still lifes, and portraits, but her most beloved works were her depictions of mythical creatures and fairies. Mariette Lydis's art continues to inspire and delight audiences around the world. Her illustrations and paintings are a testament to her visionary talent and her ability to transport us to magical realms where the impossible becomes possible. This print is a rare and beautiful glimpse into the world of Mariette Lydis, a true master of the art of illustration and painting.
