This engraving, titled "Nixes, from The World Guide to Gnomes, Fairies, Elves and Other Little People" takes us on a mesmerizing journey into the realm of mythological creatures. Created by American School in the 19th century and published in 1880, this print showcases the enchanting world of Nixes or Water People. In this artwork, we witness the ethereal beauty of female Nixes as they grace the river bank with their presence. With long golden hair cascading down their backs and delicate features that radiate elegance, these mythical beings captivate our imagination. Meanwhile, a male Nix stands nearby; his appearance resembling that of a normal man but distinguished by his green teeth and green hat. As we delve deeper into this magical scene, we are transported to magnificent regions beneath the water's surface where these extraordinary creatures reside. Reeds sway gently in harmony with an unseen breeze while ruins hint at ancient civilizations lost to time. A sea creature emerges from the depths as if drawn towards the harmonious melody played by one of the Nixes on her harp. This evocative engraving not only captures our fascination for fairy tales but also serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring connection with folklore and legends. It invites us to explore realms beyond our own reality where mythical beings thrive amidst breathtaking landscapes.
