Tiivistelmä
My thesis is a multicultural illustration concept for a children’s picture book based on Zacharias Topelius’ fairy tale Adalmina’s pearl. The concept part consists of three ready-made illustrations, and in the written part of the thesis I address the manifestation of multiculturalism in Finnish children’s picture and fairy tale books. In the process part, I describe the illustration process from the ideation stage to the finished illustrations, with a particular focus on character design.
The aim of the thesis is to produce a concept of fairy tale illustration with diverse characters and to study how multiculturalism has been presented in Finnish children’s picture and fairy tale books from the beginning of the 20th century to the present day.
