It was something I'd been wanting to do for a few years, and by then, I'd got enough material to start. I did quite a few drawings for it; I was drawing a lot at that time [ ...] I'd always enjoyed the fairy tales very much and thought I'd like to illustrate them, make a book rather like the Cavafy book, taking some of the stories; I'd read them all, about three hundred and fifty. By the time I began the etchings I'd decided to cut it down to about twenty stories ... In the end I kept cutting out the stories, realizing I couldn't illustrate too many" (D. Hockney in: Stangos S. 194 und 195).
