Tales

Oscar Wilde is a significant writer of the European decadence era. In his work, he avoided everything trivial because art was supposed to be a refuge from boredom and banality. Tales hold a special place in Wilde's work. Beautiful, gentle, and sad - they invite the reader to ponder goodness and evil, friendship and compassion, repentance and loyalty. Maria Mikhalskaya, in her illustrations, managed to convey not only the drama and tragedy of the plots but also quiet joy and tenderness.
