watercolor
From the collection of Victoria and Albert Museum
Sketch of the garden at Gwaynynog is a 18 watercolor by Beatrix Potter, a Impressionism work, depicting Garden, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This is a quick watercolour sketch by Beatrix Potter. It shows the garden at Gwaynynog where she stayed often before 1913. The five-day stretch of June 30 to July 4 in 1909 was when she painted it. Potter is better known for Peter Rabbit, but this small piece shows her love of plants and quiet outdoor spots. Look up Victoria and Albert Museum.
A watercolour and pencil drawing on paper depicts a garden scene with a path leading to an arch in the background, bordered by vegetation. The work likely served as a background study for an illustration in Beatrix Potter's *The Tale of the Flopsy Bunnies*, where rabbits observe Mr. McGregor entering his house.
