description: Cicely Mary Barker's original Flower Fairies books first published in the 1920s have been known and loved by generations. Like the pre-Raphaelite painters whom she so admired Barker believed in re-creating the beauty of nature in art and drawing from life. Her Flower Fairies watercolors have a unique combination of naturalism and fantasy that no imitators have matched.Each of Barker's four seasonal books features poems and full-color illustrations of at least 19 flowers that bloom during a particular season.
