Collected by Dr. Ignácz Kunos, translated from Hungarian by R. Nisbet Bain, illustrated by Celia Levetus
Turkish Fairy Tales and Folk Tales
(Lawrence & Bullen, 1896)
This image illustrates a story called ‘The Wind-Demon’. Levetus’s quaint designs for the siblings’ clothing and the palace’s lavish interior décor are similar to those seen in fairytale illustrations by Birmingham School lecturer Walter Crane. They reflect late-Victorian stereotypes of the Middle East.
