Sita Jucker-Bruder I

Sita Jucker-Bruder's  (1921-2003) illustrations for Mr Longfoot by Regine Schindler, 1976. Sita was an artist who was forbidden to teach because she was left handed. She studied at the Ecole des Arts et Métiers in Basel, at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Geneva and at the Paul Colin School in Paris. She worked as an interior and fashion designer, becoming an illustrator after having her son. Her style is reminiscent of many of my favorites including Brian Wildsmith.
