She/her - Why did you create this work?
This book was one of my favourites when I was a child and it's still very dear to me. It's a tale by Antoni Pogorelsky written in 1829 about a little boy named Alyosha living in a boarding school for boys in St. Petersbourg, Russia. It's a sad, mysterious and fascinating story about friendship, modesty and honesty. - How were your illustrations used?
