Yuri Vasnetsov A couple of years ago I dedicated a post to the fox character in Russian tales. Since then, the theme has continued to hold my interest, and I've gathered more images and information. As mentioned before, a large number of Russian and Ukrainian folk tales feature forest animals such as the fox, the wolf, the bear, and various birds. Domestic animals including the cat, the dog, and the rooster also appear, usually in secondary roles in combination with the wild ones. All of these characters mix human abilities and habits with animal instincts and behavior. Evgenii Rachev, The Cat and the Fox In this rich genre of stories, animal features are strictly typecast, and the sex of each character is based on its masculine or feminine noun. Among the males, we find the greedy and stupid wolf, the clumsy and slow-witted bear,the cowardly and quick hare, the lazy opportunistic cat, and the boastful rooster. The main female characters are the sneaky and crafty fox, and the cunning, obstinate goat. Trickstery is one of the fondamental narrrative elements of these stories, and in many of them the fox plays the role of the sly, calculating animal who vanquishes the stronger ones and fools all the others. Natalia Trepenok, The Fox and the Goat, from Russian Folk Tales This gallery includes illustrations for some of the most popular Russian and Ukrainian tales, and lastly a Siberian one. A few, like The Fox and the Crane and The Fox and the Goat, are also found in Aesop. I've also added links to the stories' text when possible. Other fox tales include The Fox Midwife, The Fox and the Bear, Sister Fox, The Fox and the Thrush, The Fox Confessor, and more.

Edmund Dulac (born Edmond Dulac, October 22, 1882 – May 25, 1953) was a French book illustrator prominent during the so called "Golden Age of Illustration" (the first quarter or so of the twentieth century). Born in Toulouse, France, he began his career by studying law at the University of Toulouse, but also followed classes in the Ecole des Beaux Arts, switching full time to art after he became bored with law, and also having won prizes at the Ecole des Beaux Arts. He spent a very brief period at the Académie Julian in Paris in 1904 before moving to London. In London, the 22-year old Frenchman was picked up by J.M. Dent and given a commission to illustrate the collected works of the Brontë sisters. He then began an association with the Leicester Gallery and Hodder and Stoughton; the gallery would commission paintings from Dulac and then sell the rights to Hodder and Stoughton, who would publish the books (one book a year over many years) while the gallery would sell the paintings. Books produced under this arrangement by Dulac include Stories from The Arabian Nights (1907) (including 50 colour images), an edition of Shakespeare's The Tempest (1908) (including 40 colour images), of The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam (1909) (including 20 colour images), The Sleeping Beauty and Other Fairy Tales (1910), Stories from Hans Christian Andersen (1911), The Bells and Other Poems by Edgar Allan Poe (1912) (including 28 colour images and many monotone illustrations) and Princess Badoura (1913). Dulac became a naturalized British Citizen on Feb 17 1912. During World War I he contributed to relief books, including King Albert's Book, Princess Mary's Gift Book, and, unusually, his own Edmund Dulac's Picture Book for the French Red Cross (1915) (including 20 colour images). Hodder and Stoughton also published The Dreamer of Dreams (1915) (including 6 colour images) - a work composed by the then Queen of Romania. In 1995, Ann Hughey compiled a bibliography - Edmund Dulac - His Book Illustrations: A Bibliography, which lists over 800 editions of works that include illustrations by Edmund Dulac. After the war, the deluxe edition illustrated book became a rarity and Dulac's career in this field was over. His last such books were Edmund Dulac's Fairy Book (1916), the Tanglewood Tales (1918) (including 14 colour images) and the exquisite The Kingdom of the Pearl (1920). His career continued in other areas however, including newspaper caricatures (especially at The Outlook), portraiture, theatre costume and set design, bookplates, chocolate boxes, medals, and various graphics (especially for The Mercury Theatre, Notting Hill Gate). Halfway through his final book commission (Milton's Comus), Dulac died of a heart attack on 25 May 1953.

Sometimes, you need to kick yourself in the butt. That was true for me at least, being the panda that I am. That's why, some two years ago, I challenged myself to paint a new picture every day, and share it with the world for free.
