Hans Fischer I

 


The Brothers Grimm; 'The Adventures of Chanticleer and Partlet" with incredible lithograph illustrations by Hans Fischer (January 6, 1909 – April 19, 1958), Published in 1950. I cannot believe that I have not covered the work of Swiss artist Hans Fischer before as I own and love the book Pitschi, so I will hav to dig out and share some more treasures by this beautiful illustrator.
