Illustration: Lorioux's Fables De La Fontaine Part Two
This post is just the tip of the iceberg... see reason number 3 on our The Top Ten Reasons To Support The A-HAA for links to more great posts about children's book illustrators.
Here are more beautiful illustrations by Felix Lorioux, who you might remember from our previous posts, Le Buffon des Enfants and Fables De La Fontaine Part One. Enjoy!
I just located a copy of Lorioux's Fairy Tales by Perrault from the mid-1920s. Let me know in the comments if you would like to see scans of that.
If you found this to be useful, see also... Fables De La Fontaine Part One, Felix Lorioux's Le Buffon des Enfants, Rojankovsky's Frog Went A-Courtin', Tibor Gergely's A Day In The Jungle, Gustaf Tenggren's The Little Trapper, Uncle Remus Stories Part One and Part Two, Little Verses Part One, Part Two and The New Golden Song Book Part One, Part Two and Part Three, and Huckleberry Hound Builds A House.

I would LOVE to see those scans of Lorioux's illustrations of Perrault. I do hope you decide to do this -- and I do appreciate what a job it is! In any case, thanks a lot for all the work you make available on the blog. It's a real treat to see it.
Felix is brilliant! The beautiful painting and draftsmanship of an illustrator with the mind of a cartoonist! I would KILL to see those 20s fairy tales,or anything else by him!
Thanks!
