The Enchanted Fairy Garden | Georgie Hobson | 19th Century

A fine and rare 19th century English oil on canvas depicting a nocturnal procession of fairies moving through an enchanted garden. Executed during the Victorian revival of mythical and folkloric subjects, the work exemplifies Hobson’s refined detail and imaginative narrative style. Better known for her contributions to children’s book illustration—often in watercolour—this is a distinguished and exceptionally well-preserved example of her rarer oil paintings. Signed by the artist and presented in an ornate gilt frame.
