The book : Attractive and rare second edition of this wonderful Collection of 36 fairy and elf illustrations on sixteen plates by Doyle. One of the masterpieces of Victorian colour printing. As Percy Muir describes it in his Victorian Illustrated Books (1971), In Fairyland "has 16 colour plates many with more than one subject to a page, and there is not one bad one among them. Edmund Evans surpassed himself in the printing of the blocks.  'In Fairyland' is widely considered Richard Doyle's finest work.

The illustrator: Richard "Dickie" Doyle (18 September 1824 – 10 December 1883) was a notable illustrator of the Victorian era. His work frequently appeared, amongst other places, in Punch magazine; he drew the cover of the first issue, and designed the magazine's masthead, a design that was used for over a century.
