(Joseph Noel Paton's rendering of Puck's fairies is weird,...)
Joseph Noel Paton's rendering of Puck's fairies is weird, malign, and grotesque. Their play is cruel, Puck's grin sadistic. The leftmost fairy, playing his own nose like a trumpet, could almost be mistaken for a figure from Pieter Bruegel or Hieronymus Bosch. This piece recalls the darker elements of fairy lore, too often forgotten in our own time.

We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
