Willy Pogany had a style that seemed to oscillate between each adventurous book that he illustrated —the same basic style, but on slightly different frequencies — always with classical composition and graphic impact. So many of his books were wonders to behold.
The book below has a number of pen & ink illustrations, but here are the color plates.

I love Willy Pogany's work!
These are quite beautiful.
There's some very bold use of negative space!
