Description
“And it was once” – an illustrated bilingual (Hebrew-Russian) edition will help the reader to penetrate into the world of Jewish legends, which gives a new life to Chaim-Nachman Bialik (1873-1934) – a classic of Hebrew literature. The roots of his work go back to the deep layers of the national culture of antiquity and the Middle Ages. Bialik began to publish his own expositions of fairy tales about Kings David and Solomon in 1923. Book illustrator Nahum Gutman (1898–1980) was an Israeli painter, sculptor and graphic artist, winner of the Hans Christian Andersen Prize for Contribution to Children’s Literature (1962).
