Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Towards the end of the 19th century, the English art journalist Netta Peacock travelled to Russia where she met Elena Polenova, the artist and younger sister of the famous artist Vasily Polenov. As one of her artistic projects, Elena collected the traditional folk tales she heard from peasants in local villages, and also illustrated them. The two women became great friends and Netta asked if she could translate the tales and publish them in England. Elena gave her twelve watercolour paintings, as well as a cover design painted on an exercise book. By 1916 everything was prepared for publication, but although the original manuscript and a number of engravers proofs have survived, the book, presumably because of War shortages, was never published. A few years ago, thanks to the research of Louise Hardiman, a doctoral student at the University of Cambridge, the original illustrations and stories were rediscovered, still in the possession of Netta Peacocks descendants. Now, almost 100 years later, they are finally being published in a beautifully designed childrens book edited by Hardiman in collaboration with Fontanka and supported by Natalya Polenova, the great-granddaughter of Elena, who is custodian of the Polenovo State Museum Reserve in Russia. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
