One of the more obscure artists from the Golden Age of the illustrated book, finding this volume by Ren\u00e9 Bull (1872\u20131942) makes up for my earlier dismissal<\/a> of his Arabian Nights<\/em> where the illustrations tend towards the comical. This volume dates from 1913, and shows Bull to be a fine exponent of Edwardian Orientalism. Browse the rest of it here<\/a> or download it here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
