The Kewpie Art of Rosie O'Neill
Cupids or fae
.... i prefer to call
these happy little nature beings baby fae because they seem to
be
a lot more playful and mischievous than cupids, and are not
directly associated with love or valentines.
The elf-like imps known as Kewpies, appearing in magazines and
books and as dolls, caught the
imagination of America in the early 1900's. Rosie claimed that
the kewpies appeared to her in a
dream and when she awoke, they were all over her room.
They were inspired by her baby brother
and Cupid, “but there is a difference,” she said.
“Cupid gets himself into trouble. The Kewpies
get themselves out, always searching out ways to make the world
better and funnier.”
They made their first public appearance in Woman’s Home
Companion in December of 1909
