A practical calendar with beautiful and accurate botanical illustrations with children as fairies, by Cicely Mary Barker (2009-08-08)

A nice representation of some of the color illustrations by British artist Cicely Mary Barker (1895-1973), I purchased both the 2008 and 2009 full sized calendars, and will continue to do so every year as long as is possible. As a handy and practical calendar with room to include post-it notes for reminders and appointments, this beautiful and affordable product offers both attractive form and versatile function. As a youth, Ms. Barker suffered from ill health and epilepsy, and while educated at home, she developed an interest in drawing botanicals and children, using real life models from the kindergarten class her sister Dorothy taught in the family home. Although unable to travel much, she was visited by staff from the Kew Gradens, who brought live specimens on which she based her illustrations. Ms. Barker also created Christian artwork on birthday cards, postcards, for a series of illustrated Bible stories, and as interior painted panels and walls in churches.

She helped to further the popularity of fairies and fairy based artwork and stories in the UK, aided by the lingering Victorian era values of childhood innocence and playfulness, and the enjoyment of fairy stories (such as J.M. Barrie's Peter Pan). Many of her illustrations were printed on postcards and in books which include several of her seasonal and floral based designs.

Although the 2009 calendar has far too many red/maroon colored backgrounds with less overall variety, I am glad the the Estate of Cicley Mary Barker provides license of products that enable fans today to purchase a variety of items on Amazon and on the [...] web site, including cards, puzzles, books, figurines, stationery, and more.

Wild Flowers Galore! (2008-02-08)

A beautiful calendar -- Audubon does it again! I find their calendars to be consistantly of great print quality, and the photography to be done by some of the field's premier nature photographers. Aubudon calenders are not only beautiful, they are educational as well. They are loaded with interesting information about the fauna or flora depicted on a particular month. As a Horticulturalist, I appreciate the inclusion of the latin names of the plants, as some picture calendars have only common plant names, and some don't even have either. Through their calenders, Audubon transports you to the places they photograph, and it is always a great trip.
