I mean, girls, what Beatrix Potter did with pastels and colors was sheer genius. And I for one cannot wait to see this exhibit at The Morgan.
It runs from February 23 to June 9, so March would be the perfect time to see it, what with the coming of Spring. Imagine the joy a roomful of Beatrix Potter could bring.
Here is Peter Rabbit in Mr. MacGregor's Garden, with the sweetest looking robin as his lookout. The artistry is so detailed and intricate, one would want to jump into the picture, like Mary Poppins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Look at that gorgeous pinkish white background! Has Winter ever looked so lovely. There is this and more at The Morgan! I can't wait to see you there, darlings! Dressed in your best!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And then perhaps an afternoon tea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
