Celebrating the wonderful work of English illustrator Brian Froud (b.1947) for this week's #MagicMonday. Froud's intense blend of hallucinogenic fantasy and hyper-realism (& tumble-tressed maidens) is arguably influenced by the Pre-Raphaelites and their followers.

'Fairyland' by Edward Reginald Frampton (c.1910) for this week's #MagicMonday

'The Angel of the Sea' (1906, private collection) by Edward Reginald Frampton (1872-1923) for this week's #FridayFavourite. More Frampton to follow in the following weeks (#FramptonFridays!)

Wet weather? Time to play some cards. Today's #ThursdayTheme features 'The Queen of Hearts' & 'The Queen of Spades' (1898, priv.coll.) by John Byam Liston Shaw plus John Tenniel (1865, here a later tinted version) & Arthur Rackham's (1907) illustrations for Alice in Wonderland.

Ghostly Goings On: spooky visions from the vivid imagination of John Anster 'Fairy' Fitzgerald (1832-1906) with 'The Artist's Dream' and (the Fuseli-inspired?) 'Nightmare' (both c.1860s) for this week's #MagicMonday

Celebrating the highly talented illustrator Cicely Mary Barker (1895-1973) this #SisterhoodSunday. Although very commercial now Barker's meticulous depictions of flowers surely deserve a second look, aligning with PRB attention to detail & the legacy of Victorian Fairy Painting.

Arguably one of the most unnerving representations of Ophelia for this week's #FridayFavourite: by George Frederic Watts (1875-80, Watts Gallery, Artists' Village).

Today's #ThursdayTheme is Sleeping Beauty: with exquisite dreamy contributions from: Edward Burne-Jones (1895-90), John Collier (1923), Thomas Ralph Spence (c.1886) & Archibald Wakley (1901, detail)

'Bertuccio's Bride' (1895, private collection) by Edward Robert Hughes for this week's #MidweekMelodrama. The curious subject is taken from 'The Nights of Straparola' (1550-55) a 2 vol collection of 75 stories by Italian author & fairy-tale collector Giovanni Francesco Straparola
