Omschrijving
Originating in seventeenth-century French folklore, the story of Snow White has long been one of the world's most memorable childhood tales.
It is the story of an evil queen determined to do away with a girl—with skin as white as snow, lips as red as blood, and hair as black as ebony—who threatens the queen's quest to remain the most beautiful in her kingdom. This new gift edition presents the unabridged version of the Grimms' tale, with an original interpretation by renowned artist Camille Rose Garcia that artfully combines wit and dark romance.
Camille Rose Garcia's paintings of creepy cartoon children living in wasteland fairy tales are critical commentaries on the failures of capitalist utopias, blending nostalgic pop culture references with a satirical slant on modern society. Her work has been displayed in galleries and museums internationally and featured in numerous magazines, including Juxtapoz, Rolling Stone, and Modern Painter. She is the author of several books, and recently illustrated a new edition of Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, which was a New York Times bestseller. She lives in northern California.
