Beatrix Potter painted Snow scene with fields and a line of trees in watercolour on 4 March 1909. She often sketched outdoors around Hill Top in the Lake District. This study shows a quiet hillside under snow. Potter wrote twenty-three Peter Rabbit books between 1901 and 1913. She bought Hill Top in 1905 and loved drawing its fells in mist and snow.
