Fairy Paintings by Various Artists

Fairies inspired numerous artists from all over the world and painters were no exception. When we look at the history we get the feeling these magical creatures were particularly popular in Victorian times. Maybe because of the technological advances and new media?

Even established painter as Edwin Henry Landseer (1802-1873) could not resist to try himself in this attractive area, although he was most known by his paintings and sculptors of animals, especially dogs and horses (his most famous work are probably four lions on London's Trafalgar Square).
