A winged fairy wearing a crown of flowers rests low in the grass, her wings folded and her attention turned away from the viewer, a quiet, dreamy pose that sets this piece apart from the more upright, heavenly angels that usually fill this part of the collection. Images like this drew on a long tradition of fairy painting in which the spirit world was pictured as small, delicate and close to nature. Artists working in that vein often leaned on flowers, meadows and soft light to suggest innocence and a gentle, otherworldly calm, and the grass-bed setting here adds to that sense of a being caught in a moment of rest.
