Mopsa the fairy
Mopsa the Fairy is a fairy tale by Jean Ingelow, published in Boston by Little, Brown in 1919, written for children. The pictures are fine wood-engraved style line illustrations with dense hatching, showing a boy and a girl in outdoor and courtyard settings. A designer could take from them the restrained, crosshatched texture and the soft tonal shading of Victorian children's book engraving.
