Vogeler, Heinrich
Vogeler, Heinrich (1872–1942),German painter, architect, illustrator, and writer, who was one of the pioneers of Jugendstil at the turn of the century. Influenced by Walter Crane and William Morris, Vogeler produced books that had a total unity; he designed the typeface, illustrations, and book covers of his works, and he favoured intricate and florid etchings that ornamented the entire page and heightened particular scenes of a story. Most of his fairy‐tale illustration work was accomplished between 1900 and 1911. Among his most notable illustrations of this period were those done for Hugo von Hofmannsthal, Der Kaiser und die Hexe (The Emperor and the Witch, 1900), Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, Märchen (Fairy Tales, 1900), Clemens Brentano and Ludwig
