Barry Moser

In 1992, Morrow Books (publisher of children's collections) issued The Adventures. It included twelve stunning watercolors by Barry Moser. These are beautiful prints, unlike any other illustrations I have seen. I have included all of them below. I leave it to you to identify the stories the characters come from. As you can see, he was heavily influenced by the image of William Gillette
