The artwork titled “The Fairies who Changed Places – illustration to Fairies I Have Met” was created by the artist Edmund Dulac. It belongs to the Art Nouveau (Modern) art movement and serves as an illustration.
In the artwork, there are two central figures, a bearded character seated on the left and an elegant woman standing behind him. The seated figure, intently working with a small hammer and chisel, appears to be sculpting or forming a creation out of soft, white material. His surroundings include plush, oversized cushions and a checkered cloth, adding a cozy and whimsical atmosphere. Above and around the figures, there are soft waves of large, beige, cloud-like forms. The standing figure, a woman adorned in an intricately decorated long gown with flowers in her hair, observes with a gentle and serene expression. The composition conveys a scene of fantastical craftsmanship and otherworldly beauty characteristic of Dulac’s illustrative style.
