Synopsis: |
This is a beautiful collection of Yoshitaka Amano's visions of fairies. There is a huge market for books relating to fairies - in the vein of the massively successful, Lady Cottingham's "Squashed Fairy Book". Yoshitaka Amano's lush ethereal paintings of magical creatures, spirits, goblins, and apparitions have been praised and admired all over the world. In "Fairies" he turns his considerable talent to capturing in breathtaking images characters from such beloved stories as Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream", the wizard Merlin, his muse the intoxicating Nimue, and mermaids of the deep as well as his interpretation of fairies from Celtic and Japanese mythology. Drawing from influences as diverse as Art Noveux, American comics, Art Deco, seventeenth-century Japanese ukiyo-e, and traditional fantasy illustration, Amano's gorgeous prints capture a breathtaking world. |
