"Illustration from The Nose Tree" is a notable work by the renowned English book illustrator Arthur Rackham, created for the 1900 edition of "Fairy Tales of the Brothers Grimm." Rackham, known for his distinctive style that often blended whimsy with a darker, more brooding atmosphere, contributed to the resurgence of interest in fairy tales during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His illustrations for the Grimm's collection were particularly celebrated for their ability to capture the magical and sometimes sinister qualities of the tales.

This specific illustration accompanies the story "The Nose Tree," one of the lesser-known tales from the Grimm anthology, which tells the story of a soldier who, after being cursed by a witch, ends up with a long nose that grows like a tree. Rackham's interpretation of this scene is characteristic of his approach to fairy tale illustration, where he often focused on a single, evocative moment that encapsulated the narrative's essence.

Rackham's work for the Grimm's Fairy Tales was part of a larger movement in the late Victorian and Edwardian periods that saw the rise of the gift book — lavishly produced editions of classic literature, often featuring elaborate bindings and richly detailed illustrations. These editions were popular among the middle and upper classes as prestigious gifts for special occasions.

The 1900 edition of the Grimm's Fairy Tales, featuring Rackham's illustrations, was published by Freemantle & Co. and contributed to Rackham's growing reputation as a leading figure in the Golden Age of Illustration. His work not only defined the visual interpretation of many classic tales for generations but also influenced the development of children's literature and illustration as serious art forms.

Arthur Rackham's "Illustration from The Nose Tree" remains a significant example of early 20th-century book illustration and continues to be appreciated for its artistic merit and contribution to the visual legacy of the Brothers Grimm's fairy tales.
