Illustration Inspiration Let Pequot’s Special Collections inspire your writing! Take a close look at the following illustration from one of the gems of our Shakespeare collection. Study facial expressions, body language, and the relationship between characters. Using these visual clues, write a story about the scene. Consider: What led up to this moment? What comes next in the story? How does the story end? The Merry Wives of Windsor by William Shakespeare Illustrated by Hugh Thomson London: William Heinemann, 1910. Bequeathed by Mr. Dean S. Edmonds With 40 mounted color plates with printed guards. Signed copy by the illustrator. This edition was limited to 350 numbered and signed copies of which this is number 100. Hugh Thomson (1860-1920) illustrated two of the Shakespeare’s plays in Pequot’s collection: As you like it and Merry Wives of Windsor. Both works, published in 1910, include pen-and-ink drawings at the openings of each act. Additionally, the editions have 40 mounted full-page color plates by Thomson. Thomson was Irish, born near Londonderry. In addition to the Shakespeare plays, Thomson’s illustrations are also found in editions of works by Jane Austen, J. M. Barrie, and Charles Dickens. Thomson preferred pen-and-ink illustrations but would produce watercolor images when publishers requested special editions. The two works on display in the exhibit show warm depictions of the plays’ action with great attention to detail. Before creating the illustrations, Thomson would research the works in the British Museum and the Victoria and Albert museum where he could concentrate on costumes and furnishings he later incorporated into his drawings. .

Annika Bautz Abstract: This essay focuses on introductions to editions of Austen’s texts published in the 1890s. By the late nineteenth century, Austen’s popularity and status as an author of canonical texts was beyond doubt. While illustrations to the various competing editions have received critical attention in recent decades, the other main paratext, introductions, have largely gone unacknowledged, yet deserve attention both because of their cultural significance and in their own right as critical engagements with the novels. The introduction writers were men of some standing whose contributions added weight to Austen’s texts. Their emphases on realism and humour in particular, as well as the predominant view of the author as a female genius whose art – especially her satire – had a masculine quality, but without ever seeing her as overstepping female boundaries, would have influenced many thousands of readers’ engagement with Austen’s texts. Keywords: Jane Austen, paratexts, reception, George Saintsbury, Reginald Brimley-Johnson, Austin Dobson.

Her one voice of reason and restraint is Mr. Knightley, who has known her since she was a child and who watches her behavior with wry amusement and sometimes with real anger.

Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 469 Proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Art Studies: Science, Experience, Education (ICASSEE 2020) British Book Illustration of the 1900–1910s: Sources of Inspiration Dmitry Lebedev1,* 1State Institute for Art Studies (SIAS), Department of Modern and Contemporary Western Art, Moscow, Russia *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT A huge number of illustrators appeared in the beginning of XX century in Great Britain, first of all in London, who worked on the design of wonderful gift-books. The most outstanding of them were Arthur Rackham (1867–1939), Edmund Dulac (1882–1953), brothers Charles Robinson (1870–1937) and William Heath Robinson (1872–1944), as well as brothers Charles Maurice Detmold (1883–1908) and Edward Julius Detmold (1883–1957). In addition to these artists, more than twenty more graphics were engaged in illustrating various novels, short stories, plays and fairy tales in England in this historical period, but their achievements are either less visible or are the result of imitating the abovementioned illustrators, which makes them secondary to the leaders of this direction. The peculiarity of book illustration of this period is the high level of technical training of graphic artists who studied on the best examples of Victorian art, numerous references in their work to the styles of past epochs, as well as focusing mainly on classical, or fairy tale literature. All of them are unique in their own way, and therefore there is a special interest in identifying common sources of influence on these masters, to determine the universal stylistic features of their work on the basis of the key subjects of fiction illustrated by them, as well as their classification within the era in all these categories.
