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.
