Who is the illustrator of black beauty?

Answer 1

The Author of black beauty is Anna Sewell (1820-1878). She was born in Yarmouth, England. Black beauty was written scraps of paper. Anna died shortly after the book was published but not after she had seen the success. Her father was a banker and her mother was a writer. She helped her mother in writing stories. Black Beauty was supposed to be Bessie and Merrylegs is Anna's favorite horse.

Answer 2

The first edition (1877) had just one illustration: a woodcut of Reuben Smith's accident. There have been very many notable illustrators of Black Beauty, with possibly the best being Lucy Kemp-Welch. Notable English sporting artists to have illustrated it include Cecil Aldin and Lionel Edwards. Many American illustrators have produced editions too, including Paul Brown and Wesley Dennis.

Answer 3

The full title of the book is "Black Beauty, his Grooms and Companions. The Autobiography of a horse".
Which was followed by the sub-title: "Translated from the Original Equine by Anna Sewell".

You can see why everyone just shortens it to Black Beauty.

Answer 4

Anna Sewell is the author of Black Beauty. There's a lot of versions of the book, but Anna Sewwell is the first author.
