Károly Reich, Tale illustration








I found some lost and forgotten cards when I was cleaning one of my mystery boxes. In spring 2000 we made a trip to beautiful Budapest and I bought these cute cards  from there. Károly Reich's expressive and  colorful  Slavic style cards are a full of small lovely details. Most of his illustrations picture traditional Hungarian peasant life with folklore elements and animals like  foxes, cats, pigs, cows, horses, and birds.

Károly Reich, ( 8 August 1922 – 7 September 1988 )  was a Hungarian artist, best known for his children's book illustrations and for his original draughtsmanship. His illustrations were popular among Hungarian children throughout his 40-year career, during which he illustrated around 500 books.
