In The Secret Garden, the Robin leads Mary to the key which begins her journey toward healing. In gestural pencil, Abigail Matheson’s drawing captures the bird’s quiet elegance and plucky personality. He perches on a delicate branch, serving as a guardian for the garden and leading Mary to its entrance.
With a strong mottled texture and warm base tone, we’ve sourced a Hahnemühle German Etching paper that creates a print with strong colors and deep blacks to give that rich, high in contrast feel. Since the pronounced texture of the paper enables it to hold more ink, this paper gives each print a handmade crafted feel.
Prints are shipped flat in a protective parchment sleeve in between two sheets of stiff cardboard to keep prints flat in transit. If the artwork is damaged in any way during shipping, please contact us right away with photographs documenting any such damages. We will seek to address the damage to customer satisfaction on a case by case basis.
