\"Ladies and gentlemen, you are about to hear the truth of an old legend that has persisted wrongly through the ages; the truth, until now hid behind the embroidered curtain of a rhyme,
about the Knave of Hearts, who was no knave but a very hero indeed...\"

- Excerpt from \"The Knave of Hearts\"

---------- About the Illustrator----------

Maxfield Parrish (1870–1966) was an American painter and illustrator active in the first half of the twentieth century. He is known for his distinctive saturated hues and idealized neo-classical imagery. Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, he began drawing for his own amusement as a child. He attended Haverford College and the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.He entered into an artistic career that lasted for more than half a century, and which helped shape the Golden Age of illustration and the future of American visual arts. Parrish\'s artfeatures dazzlingly luminous colors; the color Parrish blue was named in acknowledgement. Parrish devised many innovative techniques which no other major artist has successfully copied. His work achieves a unique three-dimensional appearance. The Knave of Hearts (including 23 color images) (1925) - is considered one of his most highly sought-after collectors items.
