Oooh... pretty....!WishFaery Book Links ~ Faeries and Art
 
There was a time, during the late 19th Century, that found artists illustrating fables and myths in fine art mediums. In the 20th Century, artists such as Arthur Rackham and Maxfield Parrish continued with that pattern. In the late 20th Century, artists such as Froud (both of them) turned to Faery for their inspiration. The medium turned from fine art to printed books, with the art now available for the common person to purchase. Much to our pleasure, we present these few choices below.
 
We've provided a direct link to each book listing on Amazon.com, to make it easier for you to order. The link should open in a new window , to make it easier to get back to WishFaery.
 
This list is not intended to be "all there is". If you have a favorite we haven't listed here, please, let us know! Got a comment or a suggestion? We'd love to hear from you!
