Science Fiction
Yoshitaka Amano’s lush, ethereal paintings of magical
creatures, spirits, goblins, and apparitions have been
praised and admired all over the world. In Fairies he
portrays characters from such beloved tales as
Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream; the wizard Merlin
and his muse, the intoxicating Nimue; and mermaids of the
deep, as well as fairies from Celtic and Japanese
mythology. Drawing from influences as diverse as Art
Nouveau, Art Deco, American comics, 17th-century Japanese
ukiyo-e, and traditional fantasy illustration, Amano's
gorgeous prints capture a breathtaking world.
