Ivan Bilibin Biography Ivan Bilibin (1876-1942) was a Russian artist, born in St. Petersburg, somewhat isolated from the associations with traditional Russian art found so strongly among the art community in Moscow. These books, including The Tale of Ivan the Tsar's Son, The Firebird and the Grey Wolf, The Frog Princess, The Feather of Finist the Falcon, Maria Morevna, The Little White Duck, and Vassilisa the Beautiful, propelled the young Bilibin headlong into a career of illustration, set and costume design, teaching and mural painting. Though Bilibin's work was not widely available in America until the 1976 reprints by Goznak, it was received with respect and appreciation. www.bpib.com /illustrat/bilibin.htm   (928 words)
