Crane’s vivid imagination was well suited to children’s books, where he could apply his imagination to illustrate children’s nursery rhymes and fairy tales in short, inexpensive picture books referred to as Toy Books (popular in the Victorian era) for Routledge Publishing. Crane illustrated thirty-seven toy books over the next ten years, earning him the title “academician of the nursery,” and effectively pigeon-holing his artistic style as that of a children’s book illustrator. Crane’s most famous work is often considered to be the illustrations he created for Edmund Spenser’s 16th century epic poem, The Faerie Queene (originally published 1590). The design elements of the Arts and Crafts Movement clearly influenced Crane’s style in these illustrations where he looked to the English Gothic style for inspiration, viewing it as an honest time where the artists were craftsmen, and the craftsmen were artists.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arts \u0026 Crafts Living","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53965858734465,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0017\/3850\/6340\/files\/WalterCraneSwanCushion.jpg?v=1732642637","url":"https:\/\/www.artsandcraftsliving.co.uk\/da\/products\/signare-walter-crane-swan-cushion-45-cm","provider":"Arts and Crafts Living","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
