New Yorker August 12 1950 by Roger Duvoisin
Roger Duvoisin (1904–1980) was born in Geneva, Switzerland, and in 1927, moved to New York for a job in textile design. When the company folded, he decided to publish a book he’d written and illustrated for his son. A Little Boy Drawing (Charles Scribner’s Sons) was released in 1932, and he followed it with Donkey, Donkey, which firmly established his career in children’s books—and is still in print, now from NYR Children’s Collection. Roger’s signature style was colourful, bold, and graphic, and he had a strong sense of composition and design. He incorporated both humour and drama into the lines of his art and delivered compassion without being sentimental. Over the years, he wrote and illustrated over forty books, including series that featured Petunia the silly goose and Veronica the conspicuous hippo, folktales such as the Three Sneezes and The Crocodile in the Tree, and concept books such as A for the Ark. Roger also created pictures for over 140 books by other authors. Among them were the popular Happy Lion books written by his wife, Louise Fatio, and nineteen books by Alvin R. Tresselt, including White Snow, Bright Snow, which was awarded a Caldecott Medal, and Hide and Seek Fog, which was named a Caldecott Honour Book. Four of his titles were New York Times Best Illustrated Books, and in 1976, he received the Kerlan Award for Children’s Literature. His work is on display in the Duvoisin Gallery at the Zimmerli Art Museum at Rutgers, in New Brunswick, NJ. For earlier works see part 1 also.

Another perfectly sweet book by Roger Duvoisin. It's awfully springy, bright green and yellow here at the moment so I thought it was the perfect time to share this book, yellow is the only color used throughout. Love those silver birch trees and tulips. Looks like there are a few copies here
From a 1944 edition (illustrated by Roger Duvoisin) of "A Child's Garden of Verse," by Robert Louis Stevenson.
'Imbolc Blessing' The text reads : As the Serpent stirs from Winter's Cave, Feel first the ripple, then the wave of life within the quickening earth, as Imbolc heralds Spring's rebirth' (copyright Danielle Barlow 2015) Open Edition signed print from an original painting by me (Danielle Barlow) Image is approx 11.5cm x 18cm and it has a good clear border around for ease of framing. This is printed on archival paper with pigment inks, which retains the character of the original watercolour, and should last you a lifetime. All copyrights remain with the artist I advise waiting to choose mounts and frames until you have the prints in your hands. Then you can decide whether you want to show the titles and signature in the border, and have mounts cut to the exact size.
