Summary From folk mythology and classical theatre to contemporary film and dance, the mischievous and playful fairy has fascinated mankind for thousands of years. These intriguing and ethereal creatures, with the myths and legends that surround them, have never ceased to provide inspiration for artists and illustrators. Accompanying the wide selection of bewitching paintings and engravings, Beatrice Philpotts follows the image and influences of faeries, from ancient mythology, through shakespeare and Victorian art, to modern manifestations of faerie stories. |
