| THE WEDDING OF THE MOUSE a story in six pictures | illustrations by the Japanese illustrator Gustav Klim | unpublished bookmarks Gustav Klim gave himself a pseudonym which sounds almost the same as the name of the famous Art Nouveau artist Gustav Klimt - in reverence for his great art. Who is the best bridegroom for the daughter of the mouse? The sun? 
 The story is based on an old Japanese (maybe also Chinese) tale and goes as follows: 1. The daughter said "Sun. You are the greatest one in the world. Will you marry me?" 2. The sun said "The cloud is greater than me. He is the best for you." 3. The cloud said "The wind is greater than me. He is the best for you." 4. The wind said "The wall is greater than me. He is the best for you." 5. The wall said "The mouse is greater than me. He is the best for you." 6. The daughter of the mouse married the young man of the mouse which lived in the neighborhood. More artwork by Gustav Klim can be seen on his Flickr pages. |
