Wonderful images!!! The renderings are very appealing, especially the way the color "bleeds out" with that "color applied to wet paper" look.
I have a friend returning to her family home in the Czech Republic for a month or two. Maybe I can have her locate a copy of that edition for me. Gotta have it!

Wow! This is a lovely find! I had to go out to Flickr and get all the larger versions, just to see the detail. I really love the feelings that good ink and watercolor can convey. I wonder if it would ever be possible to animate artwork like this? A movie in this style would truly be something to see.

Wow, gorgeous! Very evocative yet minimalist. It does have a 60s feel to it.

I think I need to own this book.
