Artistic Inspiration: Warwick Globe
She took up the jewel in her hand, left the palace, and successfully reached the upper world
Warwick Globe was a children's book illustrator of the Victorian and Edwardian eras. His specialties were exotic scenes of the Far East and fairy tales. Often appearing in Pearson's Magazine he illustrated a number of early science fiction stories including many by Frederick Merrick White and a little tale called The War of the Worlds by H. G. Wells.
The above image is from a 1912 volume entitled Folk Tales of Bengal by Rev. Lal Behari Day.
