Brian Froud's World of Faerie - Hardcover Book

“It is a rare thing for a book to so define an artist. Brian Froud’s World Of Faerie is the most personal, revealing and expressive book I have ever created. I believe that this must be the essential Froud book for anyone who wishes to explore ever more deeply the world of faerie through my eyes.” – Brian Froud

Drawing inspiration from England’s windswept moorlands, Brian Froud is best known for being the visionary genius behind Jim Henson’s films, The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth, and illustrating such bestsellers as Faeries and Lady Cottington’s Pressed Fairy Book.

In Brian Froud’s World of Faerie, Froud returns to the world of faerie for the first time in nine years with a wealth of paintings, watercolours, and drawings, many of them never seen before. Brian Froud’s World of Faerie offers us a startling new vision of the magical realm by the modern master of faerie, enhanced by Froud’s own words about his experiences and insights within "the Realm."

This lavish, full-colour book spans the artist's 30-year career and opens the door to Froud’s wondrous imagination as never before. Unprecedented in scope and quality, Brian Froud's World of Faerie presents hundreds of beautiful portrayals of faeries that will touch hearts and minds for generations. This magnificent book is a must-have for faerie and fantasy fans of all ages.

Includes the following special features:

• Three booklets of unpublished work from Froud's private sketchbook

• A double-gatefold revealing the inside of Brian's studio for the first time

• An original poster "Instructions" by Neil Gaiman, featuring art by Brian and Wendy Froud
