Arthur Burdett (A.B.) Frost, an American illustrator, graphic artist, and author, is renowned for his work in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Among his most celebrated contributions to American literature and art are his illustrations for the "Uncle Remus" stories by Joel Chandler Harris. One of the prominent characters in these tales is Brer Fox, a cunning and often antagonistic figure in the folklore of the Southern United States.

Frost's illustrations of Brer Fox are notable for their vividness and attention to detail, capturing the sly and mischievous nature of the character. Brer Fox, alongside other characters like Brer Rabbit and Brer Bear, is part of a rich tapestry of stories that blend African American oral traditions with the Southern plantation culture. These stories were originally compiled and published by Harris in the late 19th century, and Frost's illustrations played a significant role in bringing these characters to life for a broader audience.

Frost's artistic style is characterized by its dynamic line work and expressive characterizations, which effectively convey the humor and moral lessons embedded in the tales. His work on the "Uncle Remus" stories, including the depiction of Brer Fox, is considered a significant contribution to American folklore and children's literature. The illustrations not only enhanced the narrative but also helped to preserve and popularize these culturally important stories.

Frost's legacy as an illustrator is marked by his ability to capture the essence of the characters he depicted, making them memorable and engaging for readers of all ages. His work continues to be appreciated for its artistic merit and its role in the preservation of American folk tales.
