A hare occupies the center of this scene, with fairies gathered close around it as dusk settles over an open field. In old European folklore, hares were often linked to twilight and the supernatural, and tales of them as fairy companions or disguised spirits were common in rural communities. Pictures like this one belong to the nineteenth-century vogue for fairy subjects, when artists turned folk belief into intimate, carefully lit scenes. The dusk setting matters, since the in-between hour was thought to be when the human and fairy worlds drew close.
