Sebastian Hau

ABC with illustrations by Elizaveta Bem.

She was born in St Petersburg in 1843 and studied in formal art schools there, as well as privately with the great painter, Ivan Kramskoi. She became best known for her illustrations for postcards. 

The words are rendered in a highly decorative old-Cyrillic style. 

Each individual double sheet represents a single letter. There are the following letters in this collection: а, б, в, г, д, е, ж, з, и, к, л, м, н, о, п, р, с, т, у, ф, х, ц, ч, ш

Some pages need to be restored, as can be seen from the photos.
