Ditto Dedini!

This website isn't the archive itself, it's just a report on the activities of the archive project. We aren't always able to go into detail on all of our subjects. In our database, we have thousands of images like this in high resolution. We only have so much server space, and we aren't allowed to use third party hosts, so the best way for us to do more in depth coverage of a subject is in e-books. That gives people a chance to support the archive financially as well.<BR/><BR/>Thanks<BR/>SteveStephen Worthhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01047366337202801862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6783084.post-49048352966996494612008-06-07T11:26:00.000-07:002008-06-07T11:26:00.000-07:00Sorry, is it because of bandwidth/storage cost restrictions? Because if that is the issue one could easily post the images on a free image hosting service like flickr or a google image gallery. Another alternative would be to put together a wiki entry for each artist.<BR/><BR/>A PDF or ebook is a nice alternative, but having the single images as .jpg files is more convenient.<BR/><BR/>it's not a copyright issue right? Surely after by now these works are in the public domainThomashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15726190209638536235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6783084.post-24409832619735174552008-06-07T10:27:00.000-07:002008-06-07T10:27:00.000-07:00This book was published in 1918. Dulac was one of the greatest golden age book illustrators. No one has volunteered to draft his hall of fame page yet, but <A HREF="http://www.bpib.com/illustrat/dulac.htm" REL="nofollow">Bud Plant has a good bio here</A>.<BR/><BR/>Thomas, I'm limited as to the number and size of the images I can post on the web. I'm looking into putting together a pdf e-book or perhaps prints of some of the best golden age illustration in our collection. I'll have more info on that soon.Stephen Worthhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01047366337202801862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6783084.post-6424421557860436432008-06-07T09:10:00.000-07:002008-06-07T09:10:00.000-07:00?? When is this book from? Your link on the author's name led to an unfilled-in page. What is the context of this book and these drawings?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6783084.post-10244116110815566982008-06-07T08:27:00.000-07:002008-06-07T08:27:00.000-07:00These are truly wonderful, and you are right, such a radical shift in style. <BR/><BR/>I can't help but noticing that Dulac's illustrations are generally offered at a low resolution on your webosite, is there any chance of you re-posting his works in a higher resolution? I say this because this is honestly the first and only place I and others are likely to ever have a look at these works, and it's a shame not to be able to view them in detail and keep them as reference.Thomashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15726190209638536235noreply@blogger.com
