Cicely Mary Barker
Cicely was born in Croydon, South London in 1895 and died in 1973. Her Flower Fairies are known and loved around the world. Cicely was known as a quiet, unassuming and dedicated artist who spent her life illustrating many children's books and selling hundreds of watercolors and pastels. Today, more than twenty years after her death, her work continues to delight both young and old.
Cicely was educated at home because of ill health and taught herself to draw and paint. Cicely's Flower Fairy books brought her the most public acclaim. In these she recreated the beauty of nature as well as the joy of childhood. Her plants and flowers were observed with complete botanical accuracy and the Fairies themselves capture the unselfconscious grace of young children. For anyone who loves fairies or who loves flowers or who loves children, these are the perfect collection.We are proud to be one of a very few retailers to stock the entire selection of Cicely Mary Barker Flower Fairy range of tapestry products.
