Kathryn Hughes reassess Beatrix Potter's work after viewing a new exhibition at Dulwich Picture Gallery, wich includes "200-odd paintings, sketches and scribbles on display in an exhibition called Beatrix Potter, Artist and Illustrator at the Dulwich Picture Gallery. Pulled from the 50 or so years of Beatrix Potter's active painting life (she died in 1943, just shy of 80) they show an art that is deeper and wider than anyone whose acquaintance does not extend much beyond a well-chewed copy of Peter Rabbit might imagine."
