The Dream Pedlar - Princess Amarinth
Princess Amarinth - illustration in The Dream Pedlar by Lady Margaret Sackville. Florence Mary Anderson / Molly MacArthur (1893-1972) had two distinct styles of illustration. From the middle of the 1920s, she moved on from earlier highly-decorative fairy art (as shown here) to produce beautiful monotone woodcuts in a distinctly oriental style. This artwork (as seen here) was produced under the name Molly MacArthur, or F.M. MacArthur. Date: 1914

EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting illustration, titled "Princess Amarinth" from The Dream Pedlar, is a captivating work of art created by the talented British illustrator, Lady Margaret Sackville, known professionally as Florence Mary Anderson or Molly MacArthur. The image, which dates back to 1914, showcases the artist's earlier, highly-decorative fairy art style. At the time, Anderson was known for her intricate and ornate illustrations, which often featured fantastical creatures and ethereal fairies. In this particular illustration, we see a regal princess, Amarinth, seated on a velvet-covered stool, surrounded by an array of exotic and magical objects. The princess, with her flowing, golden locks and delicate features, gazes intently at a book held in her hands. The Dream Pedlar, a mysterious figure, stands behind her, offering a selection of dreams from his satchel. The dream pedlar's presence suggests that the princess is about to embark on a journey of self-discovery and adventure. This illustration is a beautiful example of the whimsical and imaginative world that Anderson created through her art. The intricate details, from the delicate patterns on the princess's dress to the intriguing objects in the pedlar's satchel, transport us to a fantastical realm filled with wonder and enchantment. The use of rich colors and bold lines adds to the overall sense of magic and mystery, making this a truly captivating work of art.
