Laurence Anholt | 2024 | Taschen
This anniversary edition celebrates Laurence Anholt's beloved series, which has introduced millions of young readers to the world of art for thirty years. The collection features classic tales focusing on Vincent van Gogh, Frida Kahlo, Pablo Picasso, Leonardo da Vinci, and other masters. These stories, adapted into various forms like ballet and opera, are grounded in historical events and extensive research, often including visits to artists' homes and interviews with relatives. Anholt's unique approach uses a child protagonist's perspective to humanize these geniuses and make their worlds accessible.
