Fairies

In 2008 Paris Hilton started the new promo for her fragrance Fairy Dust. There she dressed up as a fairy or as something that she thought may look like one.

But the modern conception how fairies has to look like is strongly influenced by paintings from the 19th century like this one by the British artist John Atkinson Grimshaw (1836-1893).

Spirit of the Night (1879)
