The Little Mermaid

The story of the Little Mermaid is magical and sad. Bright shades of turquoise and the sparkle of the sun on the sea foam coexist with the gloomy tones of the ocean depths, reminding us of their terrifying inhabitants. But above all, it is a tale of love. Unrequited and sacrificial love, yet still bright and full of hope. It is also a story about how the Little Mermaid gained an immortal soul, the author's reflections on the meaning of life and its values, and on faith that works miracles. «The Little Mermaid» is the first book in a series of projects by the St. Petersburg artist Anton Lomayev. It has gone through numerous reprints in several languages of the world, but remains a vivid example of the original and profound interpretation by the artist of Hans Christian Andersen's timeless fairy tale. This book is addressed to a wide audience of readers, both adults and children.
