Fairies in Art

A fairy (also fay, fey, fae, faerie, elf) is a spirit, often encountered in both the mythologies and the folk tradition of many cultures.
During the Victorian era there was an intense interest in fairy-themed art which revived for a while in 1917 after the publication of the Cottingley Fairies photographs.
In this video fairies appear in the paintings of:
Daniel Maclise
Nils Blommer
Johann Heinrich Fuessli
Robert Alexander Hillingford
Sir Joseph Noel Paton
Theodor Kittilsen
Richard Dadd
Luis Ricardo Falero
Hans Zatzka
John Anster Fitzgerald
John Georg Naish


Ξωτικά, αερικά, νεράιδες - τα συναντάμε συχνά στις μυθολογίες αλλά και στις παραδόσεις πολλών λαών. Στην Βικτωριανή Αγγλία υπήρχε έντονο ενδιαφέρον γιά τους πίνακες που απεικόνιζαν ξωτικά, η τάση αυτή αναβίωσε γιά λίγο το 1917 μετά την δημοσίευση των φωτογραφιών του Cottingley.
Ζωγραφικοί πίνακες με θέμα τα ξωτικά, σε μουσική του Ντεμπυσύ, "Σύριγξ" και από το "Απομεσήμερο ενός Φαύνου"


Music: Debussy, "Syrinx" and from the "Afternoon of a Faun"

@lowcoststart - Maybe. But I've never heard of them ever having contact with the internet. So perhaps it's just trolls. x)
