Arthur Rackham's 1913 illustration "Building the house for Maimie" depicts a whimsical scene of a group of goblins or fairies constructing a small cottage. The scene takes place in a snowy woodland, suggesting a winter setting. Rackham's signature style is evident in the detailed rendering of the creatures, their expressive faces, and the atmospheric setting. The illustration likely came from a children's book, making it a prime example of Rackham's popular illustrations for classic children's literature.
