Author Information

Jacob (1785-1863) and Wilhelm Grimm (1786-1859) were German academics who specialized in folk culture. They collected over 200 folk tales during their lives and the methodology they developed became the basis for modern-day folklore studies. Arthur Rackham (1867-1939) was a renowned book illustrator, recognized for his part in the Golden Age of Illustration. His work is celebrated for its haunting and dream-like style using pen and ink.
