The faerie world has inspired artists for centuries. From medieval illuminated manuscripts to the luminous watercolors of the Victorian fairy painters, from Pre-Raphaelite visions of enchanted forests to contemporary digital art—the image of fairies has evolved while retaining its power to enchant. This gallery celebrates that visual tradition. Each image evokes a different aspect of the faerie realm: the intimacy of fairies among flowers, the diversity of elemental spirits, the dreamlike beauty of their hidden kingdoms, and the symbols that connect our world to theirs.
