Product Description
Product Description
Originally published as the official companion to the 1978/88 exhibition at the Tate Gallery, this beautiful book explores the art of Beatrix Potter. The influences of contemporary artists, her flowering as an artist and a writer of books for children, and her later life as farmer and conservationist are all demonstrated through more than 450 colour and black-and-white reproductions of her work. The authoritative text, combined with attractive layout, full index and source list make this a most comprehensive book on one of the greatest twentieth century children's authors and artists.

I bought this book after borrowing it from the library and realising it was a really brilliant book about this legend! Fantastic layout, even my grandchildren get pleasure from looking at it.

early photos, biography, artistic background,
By Nazani - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Beatrix Potter 1866-1943 The Artist and Her World: The Artrist and Her World (Paperback)
This book is interesting for so many reasons: the development of a precocious artist, the world she grew up in, natural history, and publishing. I really enjoyed the early photographs of Potter and her family, as well as the many sketches and works rarely seen by those who know only her children's books.

Beatrix Would Approve,
By Matilda Twain "Mat" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Beatrix Potter 1866-1943 The Artist and Her World: The Artrist and Her World (Paperback)
I have this book as well as many others regarding Beatrix Potter. However, this book is my favourite and really goes into depth about her life. If you are a true Beatrix Potter fan, you shouldn't be without it.
