Ivan Bilibin's illustration for the fairy tale "Vasilisa the Beautiful" depicts a scene from the story with the protagonist walking through a dark, foreboding forest illuminated by glowing skulls. The style is reminiscent of the Russian folk tradition with its flat planes and bold lines. Bilibin, a leading figure in the Russian Art Nouveau movement, utilized the art style, known as "World of Art", to capture the spirit of Russian folk tales and legends.
