(translated perhaps as Earthly Distance)<br /><br />The second illustration says, "Балъ Сказка"<br />It is not from firebird... it is from a different collection of fairy tales but I can't remember which one and I can't find my Bilibin books right now...<br />It's an illustration of a harpy-like creature from Russian mythology.Katyahttp://www.katyaczaja.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91636461349673530.post-36744805160364972342012-07-13T11:36:56.977-04:002012-07-13T11:36:56.977-04:00I grew up reading the fairy tales illustrated by B...I grew up reading the fairy tales illustrated by Bilibin. Many of his picture book illustrations are framed by smaller illustration and I would spend hours as a child looking at all the details... <br />Jan Brett's illustrations always reminded me a little of Bilibin's.Katyahttp://www.katyaczaja.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91636461349673530.post-54311957516785161342012-07-12T16:19:47.303-04:002012-07-12T16:19:47.303-04:00Except for the portrait, the rest seem to have a d...Except for the portrait, the rest seem to have a distinct style to them.M Paxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14096697282530998519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91636461349673530.post-44058056567979563042012-07-12T11:22:00.240-04:002012-07-12T11:22:00.240-04:00Thanks for the introduction to Ivan Bilibin.
