Ida Rentoul Outhwaite: Fairy and Fairy Tale Art
Ida Rentoul Outhwaite (1888-1960) was among the first Australian illustrators to achieve international fame - and her fame was deserved
with wonderfully whimsical fairy and fairy tale images (her fairies are often to be found playing with kookaburras, koalas and kangaroos).
The Ida Rentoul Outhwaite Collection at Spirit of the Ages includes art images from some of her seminal work depicting fairies and fairy
tales. As a valuable reference resource, options are also provided for purchasing a range of gifts, including reproductions if her illustrations
on prints, posters and greeting cards.
Rentoul Outhwaite's first illustrations were published whilst she was in her teens - some appeared in "The New Idea" accompanying a story by her sister, Annie Rentoul. In the years that followed, the sisters collaborated on a number of modern fairy tales. Following her marriage to Grenbry Outhwaite in 1909, too, she collaborated with her husband - most notably for "The Enchanted Forest" (1921), "The Little Fairy Sister" (1923) and "Fairyland" (1926). In a number of cases, her children - Robert, Anne, Wendy and William - served as models for her illustrations.
