Illustration: What is its meaning? Book of illustrated illustrations illustrating illustrations

The book of a popular British writer and illustrator Mauni Fedge is an art object dedicated to illustration as a phenomenon in art and culture. Swearing illustrated books, we hardly think about how the drawings in them affect our mood and perception of the text. Meanwhile, they form the images of heroes and bring us closer to understanding the artist’s work, his vision of the work and the world as a whole. Illustrations are powerful instruments of psychological impact, and Mauni Feddeg rightly notes that they do not make the text deeper, but change it. About how exactly this happens, why illustrations are very important and what helps them influence the reader’s consciousness with such force, read in this wonderful book, all the texts in which, in accordance with the author’s concept, are written by hand.
