Seven Years of Trials and Reunion, and the End of the Story (THE END) The original work is this story written in the mid-1800s by Countess Sophie de Ségur, a Russian aristocrat who married a French count. It is one of the many fairy tales the author wrote for her grandchildren. It's a fairy tale about a kind king, a wicked stepmother, a beautiful princess, and her friends, a cat and a deer, who live in the Forest of Lilacs. The princess overcomes trials with their help and eventually marries a prince. The 1969 edition was published by Harlan Quist and was a very innovative attempt to combine a children's literature masterpiece with Nicole Claveloux's modern illustrations. ◉Author: Countess Sophie de Ségur (1799-1874) Born into a Russian aristocratic family, she married a French count. Starting with "Sophie's Misfortunes" in 1857, she laid the foundation for French children's literature with her children's books, mainly written for her grandchildren. Her works combine humor and moral lessons and have been loved by generations in France. ◉Illustrator: Nicole Claveloux (1940-) French illustrator and cartoonist. She gained particular attention in the 1960s and 70s for her psychedelic, detailed line drawings and works with a fantastical worldview. In this picture book, her characteristic style of dense, monochrome, and intricately drawn illustrations deeply and artistically depict the light and shadow, the conflict between good and evil, of the story, and is highly regarded by adults as well as children. She perfectly expresses the mysterious world of the story. #VintagePictureBook #NicoleClaveloux
