Art and illustration: John Bauer
gether with his wife and child in a shipwreck. Following Bauer's death Gustaf Tenggren took over his roll as illustrator of "Bland tomtar och troll". After Tenggren came Einar Norelius (see this earlier post) and he was succeeded by Hans Arnold (see this post).
This post about Bauer was inspired by this post by Stephen Worth of ASIFA who says that Bauer's "...style influenced generations of artists from Gustaf Tenggren ... /... Arthur Rackham, Edmund Dulac and Kay Nielsen to Brian Froud and Jim Henson (The Dark Crystal)." Judge for yourself:
Other sites of interest is The John Bauer Museum and Project Runeberg - Målningar av John Bauer where you can find great scans.

Var i somras på Jönköpings läns museum där The Bauer museum är en del av och just Bauer delen var inte den roligaste och bästa utställning jag sett.
Nu var jag väl ganska "humble" eller hur :-)
Men han Bauer var mycket duktig inte tu tal om det!!

Do you know where the Rackham print is from?
Thanks.
What Rackham print is that? These are all by Bauer.
Thank you! Amazing how much it looks like a Rackham print.
As the post says Bauer influenced many artists... I strongly recommend that you pay ASIFA a visit: Illustration: John Bauer's Bland Tomtar Och Troll. You'll find lots of Rackham there too.
