Description

A collector's classic!  Fans of Jan Brett's children's books and illustrations will love this autographed poster for her new book, "Beauty & the Beast."


Jan says: "A fairy's spell is the catalyst that sets in motion the events that prove the worth of the characters.  My Beast is a wild boar, modeled on the work of 19th century illustrator, Walter Crane. The tapestries were inspired by those designed by the William Morris company as part of the England Arts and Crafts Movement. The mottos on them attempt to capture the spirit of Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch's version of this tale, in which the messages appear over doorways and in dreams."
