Talk:Robert Ingpen

Children's Classics

AUSTLIT says (no date):

"Ingpen was commissioned to undertake the illustrations for new editions of several classic children's works published by Walker Books including Around the World in Eighty Days (2000), Peter Pan and Wendy (2004), The Ugly Duckling (2005), Treasure Island (2005), The Jungle Book (2006), The Wind in the Willows (2007), Charles Dickens' s A Christmas Carol with 'A Christmas Tree' (2008), Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (2009), The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (2010), The Secret Garden (2010) and The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (2011)."

Palazzo Editions says 28 July 2011:

"About ten years ago Robert was commissioned by Colin Webb of Palazzo Editions, Bath to illustrate for the Great Ormond Street Hospital a centenary edition of 'Peter Pan and Wendy'. This was a success and became the first of a series of ten (to date) illustrated children's classics that aims to make great stories accessible and relevant today. 'Peter Pan' has been followed by Robert L. Stevenson's 'Treasure Island', Kipling's 'The Jungle Book', Grahame's 'The Wind in the Willows', Dickens's 'A Christmas Carol', Carroll's 'Alice in Wonderland', Twain's 'Tom Sawyer', Frances Burnett's 'The Secret Garden', Frank Baum's 'The Wizard of Oz', and Jules Verne's 'Around the World in Eighty Days.' Also published, but in a different format has been 'The Night Before Christmas'(2010) and in preparation is 'Edward Lear's Book of Nonsense' in time for Lear's 200th birthday soon."

Later from Palazzo: Kipling's Just So Stories (2013)[1]; Collodi's Pinocchio (2014)[2]

Around the World in Eighty Days. We say that Around the World artwork was exhibited and the book launched 1999 in London, which fits the 2000 date given by AUSTLIT for Walker Books Australia (doesn't clearly bear on commissioning by Walker). Palazzo is clear here and elsewhere that it commissioned at least some classics illustrated by Ingpen. It makes Around the World tenth(?) in its series, published Autumn 2011.[3] Neither source identifies its translation; Palazzo calls it "complete and unabridged text". Perhaps Ingpen illustrated Around the World twice, but I doubt it.

The Adventures of Pinocchio. Walker Books Australia announces Pinocchio 2014, released April. Walker Books (UK) published Pinocchio illustrated by Sara Fanelli in 2003.[4] ... Palazzo does display Pinocchio --not under "Children's Books" so I missed it 20 minutes ago.

The Ugly Duckling probably doesn't belong. Libraries Australia lists a NY:Penguin edition.[5] AUSTLIT lists it among commissioned works published by Walker (above). Walker Books Australia doesn't mention it at Pinocchio About the author, 2014 --where it names nearly the same classic novels, and Owl and Pussycat, not Night Before Christmas.

Walker Australia does list in print both Helen Oxenbury and Ingpen illustrated editions of Alice in Wonderland.[6]
