This 15 cms x 15 cms square print is from one of my original illustrations in aquarelle pencil, inspired by Mme d'Aulnoy's story of The Bluebird.

'At that moment the king's person changed. His arms were covered with feathers, and turned into wings. His legs and feet became black and shrunken, with hooked claws. His body dwindled in size, and was all covered with long fine feathers, some of them of sky blue; his eyes became round, and shone like two suns; his nose was nothing but an ivory beak; and on his head stood up a white plume in the shape of a crown. He could sing exquisitely and speak too. He uttered a cry of pain to see himself metamorphosed, and flew as fast as ever he could to escape from Soussio's horrible palace.'
