An excellent collection of Stout illustrations, almost all color pieces.

From the publisher:

"Inspirations focuses on Stout’s loving portraits of the women of the fantastic realms.

"Be they winged and magical fairy folk, half-fish and sweetly salted mermaids, or even exotic denizens of that distant world called Barsoom, they are here.

"They and dozens more await the intrepid reader in these pages, each of them as fair, fierce and fascinating - and as terribly dangerous and impossible to hold - as her companions.

"Every one of these stunning visions is captured in ink-and-watercolor to best reveal the very life and likeness of the subjects in their full-blooded beauty.

"And, as is true of every release from Flesk Publications, the greatest care has been taken to achieve the highest reproduction quality of these muses - these dearest of William Stout’s Inspirations."
