Perched on a leafy branch, this fairy stands out from the other figures on the board by being shown in a quiet, still pose rather than in flight or in a crowd. The picture belongs to the decorative tradition of fairy illustration that flourished in Britain and America in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, when artists drew on folklore and fairy tales to create gentle, ornamental images for books, cards and wall decoration. Its repeated pattern of leaves and small figures reflects the period's taste for designs that could be tiled, bordered or set side by side. Viewers today often notice how the fine linework and soft natural forms show the influence of the Arts and Crafts movement.
