Faerie Gliders

This is a sweet scene of faeries, here reprinted in a book, originally from a vintage Ladies Home Journal.

Oliver Herford —Faerie Gliders — November 1927

Let's see the Ladies Home Journal print that picture today -- anywhere in their magazine. Wouldn't happen. Not unless it accompanied an article about how to get your child to stop daydreaming.

The subject matter always reminds me of Claire Wendling for some reason. She is one of the current greats I think.

I enjoy the playfulness of the faeries floating on leaves, the subtle colors, and the interjection of the dragonfly.
