その頃、Beatrix Potterの人生では
生涯をすべて見るchildhood
A schoolroom turned menagerie
The schoolroom of Beatrix and Bertram housed mice, rabbits, a hedgehog, bats, frogs and a newt named Isaac Newton, alongside collections of butterflies and other insects; the animals even went on long holidays, and the children watched them closely and drew them endlessly. Among the favourites were two rabbits — one of them, Peter, Beatrix walked on a lead, took with her on trains and dressed in a blue jacket, and later wrote her first tale about him.
1866–1881
Summers at Dalguise
For most of the first fifteen summers of her life Beatrix stayed at Dalguise, an estate on the River Tay in Perthshire, Scotland, where she and her brother enjoyed great freedom to sketch and explore. Her first sketchbook from those holidays, kept at the age of eight and dated 1875, is held by the Victoria & Albert Museum.
in youth
The Royal Academy and John Everett Millais
In her teens Beatrix was a regular visitor to London’s art galleries, especially enjoying the Royal Academy’s summer and winter exhibitions; her journal shows the growth of her taste and critical eye. She was also influenced by her father’s friend, the painter Sir John Everett Millais, who recognised her gift of observation.
