My enthusiasm for
fairy-tales continues, more art from
Waddesdon Manor; Leon Bakst, Sleeping Beauty.

There are seven panels telling the story of Sleeping Beauty on display at Waddesdon. My pictures don't quite do them justice, the colours are more vivid in the real. All the people and animals are modelled on Rothschild family members, friends and pets, apart from the wicked queen!
