Richard Doyle (1824-1883), ‘Triumphal March of the Elf-King’, 1870”This important personage, nearly related to the Goblin family, is conspicious for the length of this hair, which on state occasions it requires four pages to support. Fairies in waiting strew flowers in his path, and in his train are many of the most distinguished Trolls, Kobolds, Nixies, Pixies, Wood-Sprites, birds, butterflies, and other inhabitants of the kingdom.”Source -- source link
