Warwick Goble: Art for Fairy Tales, Myths and Legends

 

Warwick Goble (1862-1943) was among the English artists associated with the Golden Age of Illustration. He took training in London

and focused on watercolours as a medium - being first employed by a printer specialising in chromolithography - and later being retained

by the publishing firm of Macmillan and Co. (London) to create suites of illustrations for books of fairy tales, myths and legends.

 

The Warwick Goble Collection at Spirit of the Ages includes art images from some of Goble's seminal work illustrating fairy tales, myths

and legends. As a valuable reference resource, options are also provided for purchasing a range of gifts, including reproductions of Goble's

illustrations on prints, posters and cards.

 

 

Warwick Goble - ''Leda and the Swan

Among his first published illustrations were those accompanying "The Oracle of Baal" and

"War of the Worlds". Other commissions followed throughout the first two decades of the

20th Century.

 

Illustrations within the Collection are from valuable First Edition publications with suites

prepared by Warwick Goble to interpret classic fairy tales, myths and legends, including:

Purchasing our Posters and Cards showcasing the art of Warwick Goble for fairy tales, myths and legends

 

When presented on Cards - including Greeting and Note Card - these images are prepared as tipped-on plates - in 'hommage' to the hand-crafted approach typical

of prestige illustrated publications produced in the early decades of the 20th Century. Each card is hand-finished and the images are presented on Ivory card stock

(in the case of colour illustrations) or White card stock (in the case of monotone images) with an accompanying envelope.

 

Each of our Fine Art Posters is prepared with archival quality papers and inks.

 

Should you wish to order posters or cards, we have provided options throughout the site. To purchase, simply click on the appropriate "Add to Cart" button and you

will be taken through to our Shopping Cart secured through PayPal. Multiple purchases will be consolidated by that feature and shipping and handling costs to any

destination in the world are accommodated by our flat-rate fee of US$20 for every US$200 worth of purchases.

 

Of course, should you wish to discuss some customised options, we welcome your contact on any matter through email by ThePeople@SpiritoftheAges.com.
