Page "Fairy painting" Paragraph 7

Fairy painting was not exclusively the domain of outside art, however.

The work of John Anster Fitzgerald debuted at London's Royal Academy.

His work, in the form a series of Christmas-themed fairy illustrations, received wider public visibility in the Illustrated London News.

The Scottish artist Joseph Noel Paton exhibited two immensely detailed paintings based on the popular fairy scenes of A Midsummer Night's Dream.

Even Edwin Landseer, sometimes named " Victoria's favourite artist ", produced a painting of Titania and Bottom in the genre's style.
