About this work

This drawing shows a little girl named Clara sorting colorful buttons. She’s preparing to sew them onto doll clothes and toys. It’s one of the illustrations from a children’s book set right here at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. Clara Button and the Magical Hat Day came out in 2011, the same year this drawing was made. Look up the artist Emily Sutton.
