Midsummer Eve (by Edward Robert Hughes) Stone Coaster

This design features a painting by the British artist Edward Robert Hughes (1851–1914). It shows a beautiful young woman in a mystical forest landscape. She is wearing an elegant golden dress and she has flowers under her arm and woven into her hair. The woman is slightly bending and she has her hands clasped together on her knees. The woman is standing barefoot on grass in the woodland. She is surrounded by a circle of small figures who may be fairies, and they are holding bright orbs of light. It is a magical scene of great beauty. In the background are oak trees. The original artwork was painted by Edward Robert Hughes circa 1908.
