Mermaids and fairies are both creatures of magic and imagination. The classic portrayal of the mermaid, seated on rock by the sea, golden hair and fishtail dipping into the water, a comb and mirror in hand. Mermaids are half-female, half-fish beings -- a beautiful creation of a fantasy world. While mermaids inhabit the sea, their magical counterpart, fairies, inhabit the sky, stars, flowers, trees and the woods. Flying on wings of gossamer, knowing of the gentle side of nature, fairies seem to have a childlike naivete and beauty.
In countless children's stories through every world culture, images of these creatures have mesmerized artists and writers in their efforts to bring to life its mystery and beauty to their audiences. World Images brings you many such images that will bring out the enchantment, elusiveness and magic of these creatures in beautiful ways. |
