Helen Oxenbury's original gouache paintings and sketches will be showcased in 'Illustrating the Land of Childhood' at Burgh House next March, reflecting her timeless artistry.
Oxenbury's work, including her celebrated adaptation of Alice in Wonderland, showcases a broad range of universal themes and a subtle celebration of diversity throughout her career.
The family and dog in Oxenbury's classic book, which has remained in print, are inspired by her children and pet, tying her personal experiences to her art.
Burgh House's 2025 program will also highlight the legacies of illustrators like Kate Greenaway and Helen Allingham, who transformed children's book illustration.
