Wow. I had no idea that the illustrator of that iconic Narnia edition was still alive when I last read it.

My daughters love her work.

Here's a heart-stopper -- I clicked on wikipedia ("recent deaths") and I see that Peter Jackson has also died!!!

Mind you, this Peter Jackson was some 80-year-old fashion designer, but still ... weird.

We’ve had at least three different editions of the Chronicles but I don’t remember these illustrations. Were these the original illustrations from when the books were first published?
