12 illustrations Bolond Istók by Sándor Petőfi
by Soma Orlai Petrics

Soma Orlai Petrics made 12 illustrations for Petőfi's poem 'Bolond Istók' (Steve Fool). These pencil drawings follow through the story and with their sentimental-romantic tones resemble the style of the tale illustrations of the German and Viennese masters of the beginning of the 19th century.

The poem of Sándor Petőfi (1823-1849) can be read (in Hungarian) in the Hungarian Electronic Library.
