About this ebook
The Cinderella Picture Book is accompanied throughout by a series of dazzling colour and black and white illustrations – by a master of the craft; Walter Crane. Crane (1845 – 1915), was an English artist and book illustrator. He is considered to be the most influential, and among the most prolific, children’s book creator of his generation. Alongside such names as Randolph Caldecott and Kate Greenaway, he was also one of the strongest contributors to the child’s nursery theme. Crane’s work is characteristically colourful and beautifully detailed, taking its inspiration from the Arts and Crafts movement (of which he was a member), as well as the iconic child-in-the-garden motif. The artwork and the text of the ‘Cinderella Picture Book’ are presented side-by-side, so that the two may be better appreciated.
Walter Crane
Walter Crane (1845–1915) was an English artist, book illustrator, and one of the most influential children’s book creators of his generation. Crane produced not only paintings and illustrations for children's books, but also ceramic tiles and other decorative arts. From 1859 to 1862, Crane was apprenticed to wood-engraver William James Linton and had the opportunity to study works by many contemporary artists, including Sir John Tenniel, the illustrator of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass.

CINDERELLA
THERE was an honest gentleman, who had a daughter dear;
His wife was dead, he took instead a new one in a year;
She had two daughters—Caroline and Bella were their names;
They called the other daughter Cinderella, to their shames,
Because she had to clean the hearths and black-lead all the grates;
She also had to scrub the floors, and wash the dinner plates.
