‘Sketchbook, age 8’ © Frederick Warne & Co At the age of eight, Beatrix Potter was already studying and recording animals, birds and insects in a home-made sketchbook.

‘Microscopic studies of a Small Tortoiseshell and Painted Lady’ © Frederick Warne & Co Beatrix caught and mounted these butterflies for her collection of specimens. What do you think the designs in the two boxes are?

Illustration from The Tale of Mrs. Tittlemouse The butterfly, along with a bee, beetle, ladybird and spider, enjoy supporting roles in The Tale of Mrs. Tittlemouse. Potter observed them all with astonishing attention to detail.

Study of harebells and marguerites 5 July 1880 © Frederick Warne & Co As a teenager, Beatrix spent most of her time on her own, studying, painting, and sketching. Through her 20s, she developed into a talented naturalist. She also began to earn a small income from her illustrations for greeting cards.

Peter Rabbit, © Frederick Warne & Co Potter first wrote the story of Peter Rabbit in 1893 in a picture-letter to Noel Moore. Noel, the son of her friend and former governess, was ill in bed.

Onions, August 26, Beatrix painted all she saw, even vegetables. Notice how she arranged the onions. Look at how carefully she sketched and painted them.

'Peter Rabbit and Benjamin Bunny collecting onions' © Frederick Warne & Co Later, Beatrix used the sketch of the onions in an illustration from The Tale of Benjamin Bunny. How are the onions different? How are they the same?

‘Preliminary sketch for The Tale of Mr Jeremy Fisher’ © Frederick Warne & Co Potter’s first concern was to remain true to the likeness of the animals. Her humor was based on familiar happenings of everyday life. She was a realist, and rarely attempted to teach morals in her stories.
