Charles Robinson

    Charles Robinson bol plodný britský knižný ilustrátor. Jeho diela sa vyznačujú jemnou líniou a poetickou atmosférou, často zobrazujúcou snové a rozprávkové scény. Robinsonov štýl je neodmysliteľne spojený s klasickou detskou literatúrou, kde jeho ilustrácie dodávajú príbehom mágiu a hĺbku. Jeho vplyv na vizuálnu podobu mnohých kníh je dodnes badateľný.

      The story follows Lieutenant Henry O. Flipper, the first African American graduate of West Point, who faced a court-martial in 1881 while serving in Texas. Though acquitted of embezzlement, he was convicted of conduct unbecoming an officer, leading to his dismissal from the army. Flipper's case highlighted the deep-seated racism within the military, drawing parallels to the Dreyfus Affair.
