Draw Me a Story

April 14 - July 23, 2006

Kate Greenaway was a prolific illustrator whose vision of childhood was original and consistent. Comely children with regular features, devoid of emotion, immaculately groomed and dressed in 18th-century costume inhabit her idyllic country world. Greenaway wrote that “old-fashioned things are always very pleasing to me.” Greenaway produced a yearly almanac from 1883 to 1895 and is responsible for numerous children’s books for which she often composed poetry in addition to creating the illustrations.
