Where is the wild ?

Musing on where all the wild places have gone.

Candela Ferdmann

 'The Joy of Eating' a very daunting mobile wolfish mouth by Argentinian illustrator Candela Ferdmann found at the wonderful Toi Gallery.

Cristina Bazzoni

An almost knitted forest of impenetrable trees and forest for Little Red Riding Hood in Cristina Bazzoni's 'Woods' available at Toi.

Bernhard Nast

Bernhard Nast's illustrations for Rotkäppchen from 1973 which I discovered through Italian illustrator Daniela Tordi.I have been unable to find anything further about Bernard Nast except that he was a German artist working in the mid 20th century.

Hans Fischer

These complex illustrations by Hans Fischer (1909-1958) of Little Red Riding Hood, I immediately recognised as being the same hand as Pitschi with their elaborate line drawings and simple washes of colour. It is wonderful to see his version complete with giant beetles and other details to wonder at and get lost in.
