Kay Rasmus Nielsen was a Danish illustrator who lived from 1886 until 1957. Alongside Arthur Rackham and Edmund Dulac he is well known for his contributions to the so-called golden age of illustration. Unlike his contemporaries his artwork had a distinct modern look, and was also influenced by the influx of Japanese art. Examples of his illustration work include The Twelve Dancing Princesses and Other Fairy Tales (1913) and East of the Sun and West of the Moon: Old Tales from the North (1914), both of which were recently reprinted by Calla Editions, and which also serve as perfect examples of works he redefined and made his own. Additionally, he illustrated Hans Andersen’s Fairy Tales (1924) and Hansel and Gretel and Other Stories By The Brothers Grimm (1925). Finally, he is also known for his contributions to Disney. His designs were featured in Fantasia, as well as The Little Mermaid (for which he received posthumous credit). You can find his works here, here, and here, plus some favorites below.
