"And then aloud spake she- "O King a champion waits the hoar To take my part with godlike power And my Deliverer be. "In dreams I saw him; silver-bright His jewell'd armour shone. His sword was as a beam of light His crest a silver swan. "He is my Lord he is my King. And his till death am I. Come Victor Lord the hoar is near- Oh hear thy poor maid's cry!" William Andrew "Willy" Pogany born Vilmos Andreas PogÃ¡ny August 1882 - 30 July 1955 was a prolific Hungarian illustrator of children's and other books. Pogany's best known works consist of illustrations of classic myths and legends done in the Art Nouveau style. He also worked as an art director on several Hollywood films including Fashions of 1934 and Dames. The publication of PogÃ¡ny's Lohengrin was the final act in his trilogy of masterworks focused on Wagner's Germanic tales and one of the quintet that is considered his finest work. PogÃ¡ny clearly approached the commission to illustrate Lohengrin as an opportunity to improve and extend techniques that he had developed through his preceding work particularly The RubÃ¡iyat of Omar KhayyÃ¡m The Rime of the Ancient Mariner TannhÃ¤user and Parsifal the other four books that immortalized his career as an illustrator. That commitment to ongoing innovation resulted in an incredible suite of illustrations including color lithographs monotone and marginal illustrations and the delightful tipped-in color plates produced with a four-color process included in Lohengrin. Themes of medieval chivalry erotic love and moral tests are illustrated in a lavish fashion by PogÃ¡ny with an outstanding use of iconography form and color.'. London: G.G.
