In 1900, American writer Lyman Frank Baum, working together with illustrator Wallace Denslow, created a masterpiece that brought both of them worldwide fame - the fairy tale " The Wizard of Oz ", which shook the society of that time. It is this book that begins a new series "Benjamin Lacombe. Masterpieces of Illustration".
The most famous classics are now reimagined for a modern audience. Lacombe has thought through every detail of the design of the spreads, from the ornamentation in the style of Art Nouveau and Art Deco to the emerald shade of the pages, personifying the color of the dollar bill - a symbol of society's obsession with money.
Each book in the series is unique, an incredible gift that will be remembered with love and delight for many years to come.
