The Canterbury Pilgrims

[n.p.]: [n.p.], 1974. Title page, portrait of Chaucer plus 24 characters from the Canterbury Tales, each signed and numbered. Fine in a plain pink construction paper portfolio. Number 112 of 250 signed by the artist. Smith is an author and illustrator who is best known for her "Jennifer" series of books, beginning with Jennifer's wish published in 1949. She is also the mother of Sharon Kane, an author and illustrator of children's books. Each image is very detailed and brings to life the personality of the particular character. The most striking thing about this work is the size of the etchings, a very difficult medium, and generally done on a very small scale.
