FROM A FLOWER FAIRY ALPHABET

"It was her Flower Fairies books that brought Cicely Mary Barker her greatest popular acclaim. Like the Pre-Raphaelite painters whom she so much admired, she believed in recreating the beauty of nature in art and in drawing from life. Her plants and flowers are observed with compete botanical accuracy and in the fairies themselves she perfectly captured the unselfconscious grace of young children." Cicely Mary Barker and her Art by Jane Laing. Among the rarest and most sought after of Barker's Flower Fairy series is A Flower Fairy Alphabet by Cicely Mary Barker.
