About This Item
Tender original illustration for the first Russian translation of J.M. Barrie's play Peter Pan: The Boy Who Would Not Grow Up (issued in 1971).
May Miturich (Miturich-Khlebnikov, 1925–2008) was a 'classic' of children's illustration and nephew of futurist poet Velimir Khlebnikov. He studied under his father, an artist Petr Miturich and at the Moscow Polygraphic Institute, where later he taught. In 2005 he was awarded the Japanese Order of the Rising Sun.
This second Russian edition of the play was the only edition with Miturich's illustrations. By repute the edition of 1971 was aimed for narrow audience only and was not circulated in shops and small libraries for next ten years.
