Girl with basket
Signed with the initials 'K.G' in the corner, this delicate sketch comes from the beloved Victorian illustrator Kate Greenaway. It features a young girl in a long, flowing dress and a distinctive pointed hood, clutching a basket—classic elements of Greenaway's signature style. She was famous for depicting children in Regency-era clothing, a look so charming that it actually sparked a fashion trend for children in the late 19th century! This appears to be a character study, capturing the innocent, nostalgic vibe that made her children's books massive bestsellers.
