Edward Julius Detmold

  

  

How did I not know about E.J. Detmold? He did rich watercolor illustrations in the early 1900’s for Fabre’s Book of Insects, an Aesops’s Fables, Birds and Beasts, Maurice Maeterlinck’s The Life of the Bee. They are so strange and lovely. I wonder how much the watercolors of Walton Ford are influenced by Edward Julius Detmold?
