Untitled is a 1903 watercolor by Beatrix Potter, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This watercolour painting depicts three tall plants with pink flowers and green leaves. The stems are slender, and the leaves are long and thin. The flowers are clustered at the top of the stems, with some facing upwards and others downwards. The painting is done in a simple yet elegant style, with clean lines and minimal detail. The colours are muted, with shades of pink, green, and white dominating the palette. The Victoria and Albert Museum holds this beautiful piece, showcasing the artist's skill in capturing the beauty of nature.
A watercolour and sepia ink drawing over pencil depicts four sprays of snapdragon flowers. The pink blossoms appear against grey-green stems on a plain background. The work was donated by Leslie Linder to the National Book League in 1970 as part of a collection of 279 drawings and 38 early editions. This group, known as the Linder Collection, was on long-term loan to the Victoria and Albert Museum from 1989 to 2019.
