Published to coincide with the 150th anniversary of Beatrix Potters birth, this magnificent collection celebrates the artist behind The Tale of Peter Rabbit and numerous other beloved childrens books. Brimming with famous images and rarely seen gems-ranging from character sketches and notebook pages to watercolor landscapes and natural history illustrations-this monograph explores Potters artistic process and reveals the places that inspired her timeless work. Organized geographically and featuring more than 200 images from the artists oeuvre, The Art of Beatrix Potter includes illuminating essays by Potter scholar Linda Lear, illustration historian Steven Heller, and childrens book illustrator Eleanor Taylor. It is the definitive volume on one of the worlds most influential authors, a woman whose artistry, until now, has not been fully celebrated.
