This latest volume in The Illustrators series explores the life and work of Dutch artist Dick Bruna (1927–2017), creator of some of the world’s most beloved children’s characters. Illustrator Bruce Ingman offers insights into Bruna’s artistry beyond Miffy, highlighting his bold book and poster designs. A glimpse into his Utrecht studio reveals Bruna’s mastery across drawing, painting, collage and photography. This illuminating study celebrates his wide-ranging output — from book covers to stamps — and charts how Bruna’s deceptively simple style captivated audiences of all ages, earning him a reputation far beyond children's publishing and making Miffy a global phenomenon.
