About the Item
Alice RoseProvensen and Martin Provensen were an American couple who illustrated more than 40 children's books together, 19 of which they also wrote and edited According to Alice, "we were a true collaboration. Martin and I really were one artist. The Provensens were a runner-up for the 1982 Caldecott Medal as illustrators of A Visit to William Blake's Inn by Nancy Willard (who won the companion Newbery Medal). Two years later they won the Caldecott for The Glorious Flight, the story of aviator Louis Blériot, the first man to fly solo across the English Channel, which they also wrote.[6] The annual award by U.S. professional librarians recognizes the year's "most distinguished American picture book for children".[7] Eight of their books were named to The New York Times annual Ten Best Illustrated Books, including Our Animal Friends at Maple Hill Farm (1974) and An Owl and Three Pussycats (1981).[8] The couple were collaborative illustrators for Donald Waxman's "Pagaents for Piano," a series of pedagogical primers.[9]
The couple lived for many years at Maple Hill Farm in Dutchess County, New York, which they portrayed in A Year at Maple Hill Farm (1978) as well as Our Animal Friends.[10] Martin died of a heart attack on March 27, 1987, in Staatsburg. Alice continued to live and work at Maple Hill Farm, publishing solo work such as The Buck Stops Here: the Presidents of the United States (1990) and My fellow Americans: a family album (1995), two presentations of people and events from American history (juvenile nonfiction).Punch in New York, published in 1991, is considered her best solo work.[citation needed] The book received several honors and is dedicated to her grandson, Sean.
