About this product

Product Information

The two artists who have created this book, Alan Lee and Brian Froud, have studied fairy history, myths, legends, and folklore, and embodied their findings in 185 paintings and drawings. All the fairy types are identified and pictured - water fairies elves, gnomes, pixies, leprechauns, tree fairies, dryads, and more. Information on their favourite haunts, pastimes, and ways of life are drawn from Celtic stories, oral tradition, and from writers and poets. Among these sources are the Ballad of Thomas the Rhymer, Yeats' The Song of Wandering Aengus, and Christina Rossetti's poem Goblin Market. Folk stories are traced to their origins, retold and illustrated.

  • Great for Fantasy Lovers

    The first time Id seen this book was at school, a friend of mine had borrowed it and I was able to leaf through it. Even just at leafing, the illustrations amazed me. I believe it was the original print from around the 70's or so. I recognized one of the artists names (Brian Froud) from the work he did for the movie "The Dark Crystal". Then I knew I had to have this book (as an avid fan of artbooks in the first place). The illustrations are very nicely reproduced, and the notes and things and backgrounds of the creatures represented makes it feel like your reading a bestiary.

  • The Power of Faeries!

    This book is absolutely beautiful in every aspect. The pictures and narrative stories make you want to believe that these mythical creatures must live among us. If you ever loved fairy tales as a small child (or even as an adult) then you must, absolutely must, own this book. It is a feast to revel in....a classic!
