Edmund Dulac's Fairy Book - Fairy Tales
Published by Hodder & Stoughton Limited: London c1925 (undated)
Beautifully Illustrated With All Illustrations Present

" Edmund Dulac's Fairy-Book is a superb early twentieth-century illustrated collection that brings together classic fairy tales through the distinctive artistic vision of one of the golden age's most celebrated illustrators. Published by Hodder & Stoughton in London around 1925, this volume reflects Dulac's mature style, shaped by Art Nouveau, Symbolism, and a refined sense of colour harmony. The stories themselves are drawn from traditional fairy-tale sources, but it is Dulac's interpretation—dreamlike, theatrical, and often tinged with quiet darkness—that gives the book its lasting artistic significance.

The book is beautifully illustrated throughout, with Dulac's richly coloured plates capturing moments of enchantment, danger, and transformation, rendered with his characteristic elegance and imaginative detail. His figures, costumes, and fantastical settings evoke a timeless, otherworldly atmosphere, making each illustration feel like a miniature stage scene suspended in colour and shadow. With all illustrations present, this undated Hodder & Stoughton edition remains a highly desirable example of Dulac's fairy-tale work and will particularly appeal to collectors of classic illustrated books, admirers of Edmund Dulac, and those drawn to the golden age of fantasy illustration and traditional fairy tales."
