BEATRIX POTTER: DRAWN TO NATURE

VICTORIA & ALBERT MUSEUM, LONDON

MARCH 12

— 12 February 2022–8 January 2023 | Delve into the life of fabled children’s author, Beatrix Potter (1866–1943) at the Victoria & Albert Museum (V&A). Her much-loved characters Peter Rabbit, Jemima Puddle-Duck, naughty Squirrel Nutkin, and many more are as fresh today as they were when she created them (1901–1930). Inspirations for Potter's tales are displayed. There’s the dolls’ house that's famed for being vandalised in The Tale of Two Bad Mice, as well as her early sketches of rabbits, hedgehogs (Mrs Tiggy-Winkle) and more. Letters, family photos, and even her clogs offer intimate insights, while a video of Potter's Lake District neighbourhood today shows her other environmental legacy.⬥ dreamescapemagazine.com
