A winged fairy with blue hair sits among mushrooms beside a waterfall, and the pairing of a small figure with a wild, watery landscape gives the scene its quiet, otherworldly mood. Fairies like this come from a long European folk tradition of nature spirits who lived in woods, streams and mossy hollows. By the 19th century they had become a popular subject for painters and book illustrators, who often used mushrooms as seats, shelters or dancing rings. The board files the picture under angels and fairies, though its natural setting differs from more formal religious scenes.
