Beatrix Potter painted this watercolour of a garden in 1909. It was a place she visited often in Denbigh. The sketch later inspired a story she never finished. Potter spent years drawing plants and landscapes. This garden scene shows how she blended real places with her imaginary tales. Check out more of Potter’s work at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
