Beatrix Potter painted a soft watercolor of a snowy landscape. It shows rooftops, trees, and hills under a blanket of white. The date on the painting is March 4, 1909. Potter owned a house called Hill Top in the Lake District. She often sketched outdoors, even in mist or snow. Her gentle style grew from these quiet studies.
