Together with the artist Edmund Evans, he created one of the first in the history of color children"s books. The graphic style of Crane reflected his interest in the art of the Renaissance, which manifested itself, first of all, in the image of costumes and interiors. He also experienced a significant impact of Japanese engraving with its linissy and local color scheme, which, according to the artist, was absolutely consistent with the features of children"s perception.
