Shlomo HaMelech VeHaAderet HaMeofefet – Omanut" Publishing", Frankfurt, 1924
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.)
