Beni Montresor



Beni Montresor (1926-2001) 'Little Red Riding Hood', Published by Doubleday 1991. In his illustrations, Beni Montresor pays homage to 19th century illustrator Gustave Doré. 

Above: Les Contes de Perrault by Charles Perrualt, illustrated by Gustave Dore, 1861

Doré was one of the most famous illustrators of Perrault's Little Red Riding Hood and Montresor's images imitate some of his most memorable engravings: the encounter in the woods, the wolf at grandmother's bedside, and Little Red Riding Hood in bed with the wolf. However they also have the contemporary quality of Maurice Sendak's 'Where the Wild Things Are' with their dense rich foliage.
