The publisher’s note explains that many of Rackham’s designs had appeared as line drawings in an earlier 1899 edition, but were revised, worked over, coloured by the artist, and supplemented with new designs for this edition. Rackham’s imaginative and slightly grotesque style is especially well suited to Swift’s strange voyages, from Lilliput to Brobdingnag and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1486\" data-end=\"1946\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1486\" data-end=\"1506\"\u003eThe illustrator:\u003c\/strong\u003e Arthur Rackham (1867-1939) was one of the most celebrated illustrators of the Golden Age of British book illustration.
