IVAN BILIBIN [ILLUSTRATOR], BYLINY, 1905
,
BILIBIN, Ivan Yakovlevich (1876-1942), illustrator. Byliny, Volga. Petrograd: I.I. Bilibin, 1904. Original color lithographed wrappers. 16 pages. Large folio (400 x 310 mm). Illustrated throughout with chromolithographs, some full-page.
Bilibin was one of the best-known members of the Mir Iskusstva [World of Art] group. He was the greatest illustrator of Russia`s skazki or fairy tales and was a distinguished set and costume designer. His Volga is one of the most beautifully designed and printed publications of the Silver Age. Bilibin devoted six months to illustrating this ancient bylina or folk epic about the mythic hero Volga.
