Artist, illustrator and painter Lyuben Zidarov was born on this date, exactly 100 years ago – in 1923 – in Veliko Turnovo.
He passed away a few months short of his 100th birthday, but the love he inspired of good books, with his illustrations, has lived on in the hearts of generations of Bulgarians. 
He created some of the most memorable illustrations to the translated versions of Harriet Beecher Stowe’s Uncle Tom’s Cabin, Arabian Nights, Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island, Mark Twain’s Tom Sawyer, the fairy tales by Hans Christian Andersen and many more.
