Beatrix Potter is one of the world's best-loved children's authors of all time. From her first book, The Tale of Peter Rabbit (1902) she went on to create a series of stories based around animal characters including Mrs Tiggy-winkle, Mr Jeremy Fisher and Tom Kitten. Her humorous, lively tales and beautiful illustrations have become a natural part of childhood.
A source of inspiration was the Lake District where she lived for the last thirty years of her life as a farmer and conservationist.

Lovely color and black and white illustrations by Beatrix Potter. About the book: (from the dust jacket) Beatrix Potter The V & A Collection is the most comprehensive catalogue of Beatrix Potter material ever to have been published. It covers in detail the bequests of Leslie and Enid Linder, amounting to more than two thousand items and including work in a variety of different media and by various members of the Potter family. Watercolor sketches, finished drawings, first editions, original letters and juvenilia show the wide range of Beatrix Potter's own work, while her parents and brother also provide evidence of artistic talent - Rupert Potter being represented by an outstanding collection of his photographic work, as well as by an early sketchbook. The catalogue is based on the handwritten volumes compiled by Leslie Linder for his own use, but the entries have been modified to conform with current bibliographical and print- room practice. The work has been illustrated throughout with relevant items from the collection, some of which have never previously been reproduced. A catalogue of this complexity, involving works in so many different media, depends for its success on the collaboration of many experts. The foundation of the present work was the catalogue of his collection, prepared by Leslie Linder for his own use. The supervision of all aspects of the task came within the province of the Library of the Victoria and Albert Museum, and in particular of the succeeding curators of the bequest, Joyce Irene Whalley and Anne Stevenson Hobbs. The original sorting and identifying of the material was carried out by art historian Emma Stone, and edited by Celia O'Malley. N° de réf. du vendeur 15060
