The book : Rare in any condition edition of Clara Creed illustrations for the Snow Queen. Pym's images for the Snow Queen bring to mind the medieval art of illumination in their knack of encapsulating a densely layered world in a single picture rendered in brillant hues and subtle textures. At the same time, they exude a nostalgic mood in the evocation of an old-style world on the brink of collapse, alongside a sentimantalist strain in the idealization of childhood.

The Author : Hans Christian Andersen often referred to in Scandinavia as H. C. Andersen (2 April 1805 – 4 August 1875), was a Danish author. Although a prolific writer of plays, travelogues, novels, and poems, Andersen is best remembered for his fairy tales. Andersen's popularity is not limited to children: his stories express themes that transcend age and nationality.
