King David In The Cave, legend composed by Ch. N. Bialik, illustrated by J. (Jacob) Apter. Frankfurt am Main: "Omanut", 1923.
"The atmosphere in the book 'Hamelech David BaMe'arah' is romantic and expressive, mysterious and gloomy. Ferdinand Hodler (1853-1918) and Ephraim Lilien's influence is well noted in this book. Most figures seem like silhouettes on light background and the shapes are drawn in sharp lines in spite of the decorative elements. The two boys entering the cave are dressed nearly as women and definitely do not remind us of Jewish scholars while the King is tall with a well groomed beard. There is, no doubt, an affinity to Art Nouveau with obvious expressionist elements." (From: Ayala Gordon,' Iyurim Ivri'im '– the Hebrew illustrated book for children, Tel-Aviv, 2005, p.78). [2], 19, [3] pp, 18X24.5 cm. Good condition.

BIALIK, Chaim Nachman. Shlomo HaMelech VeHaAderet HaMeofefet [King Solomon and the Flying Mantle], a legend told by Ch. N. Bialik. Illustrated by N. Yedel. Frankfurt am Main, Moscow, Odessa: Omanut, 1924.
Children's story by Chaim Nachman Bialik, wonderfully illustrated in the Art Nouveau style by N. Yedel.
"[Yedel] is a skilled illustrator who uses a dramatic and ornamented style, but lacking in charm. In his illustrations King Solomon, dressed in an elaborate Russian garment of the Middle Ages, resembles Ephraim Lilien's biblical figures, which, in turn, bring to mind Assyrian kings on the one hand and Herzl on the other. Yedel, in his illustrations, makes much use of the rules of perspective... The illuminations do not disrupt the sense of depth but intensify it… In comparison to Nahum Gutman, who illustrated the same story ten years later, Yedel has no sense of humor. The extreme severity and heroic dramatic style in which he depicts King Solomon and the Ant Queen (Gutman exchanged the ant for a frog) are quite ridiculous." (From: Ayala Gordon, Hebrew Illustrations – the Hebrew Illustrated Children's Book, Tel Aviv, [2005], pp 80.)
[2], 22, [1] pp, 24x18 cm. Good condition. Scattered stains, tears and creases to covers, and faint moisture residue to the last few leaves.

Das Baby-Liederbuch, bilder und verse von Tom Freud [songs for babies, illustrations and verses by Tom Freud]. Berlin: Reuss&Pollack, 1914. German.
Ten songs for babies, each one illustrated by Tom Seidmann-Freud. The illustrations are naïve and gentle, using the pochoir technique which leaves the impression that they were colored by hand (colors are bright and in good condition).
This is the first children's book written and illustrated by Tom Freud, when she was 22 years old, prior to leaving Berlin and prior to her marriage with Jacob Seidmann. During the period when this book was published, Freud led with her older sister Lily, entertainment evenings for children where they read folk stories and songs and screened slides of Tom's paintings. For further information about Tom Seidmann-Freud and her books, see "Kedem" catalogue no. 21, p. 92. [20] pp, 17.5X25.5 cm. Fair-good condition. Damages (tears and minor moth-damages, some tears with omission) to edges of leaves and to cover, all professionally restored. Stains and creases. Scarce.
