Cicely Mary Barker's "Flower Fairies" books, published in the first half of the twentieth century, are known and loved around the world. In this book, Jane Laing examines Cicely Mary's life and character, drawing on her worklists and letters and the recollections of relatives and friends. She evaluates the artist's style and technique, using reproductions of sketches, watercolour drawings, pastels, book illustrations and devotional paintings, many of which have never been published before.

lovely book,

This review is from: Cicely Mary Barker and Her Art (Flower Fairies) (Hardcover)
I am an artist and have been a lifelong fan of Cicely Mary Barker's work. Her drawings are so pure and deceptively simple. I have looked for this book for years, having once seen it in Canada and was delighted to find it on Amazon. This book offers an insight into her life and copies of other work she did, other than her famous fairies.
