Life Meets Art

The wallpaper in my room features artwork from the beautiful book The Diary Of An Edwardian Country Lady by Edith Holden. It features delightful sketches of plants, birds, dragonflies, butterflies and other delights of Nature.

Since my room is surrounded by garden and the windows are often open many moths and other insects fly in and out. There are some quite exquisite little moths who grace me with their presence.

This little beauty flew into my room one day and alighted on the wallpaper beside Edith's lovely drawings and one of the poems which also feature on the wallpaper, this one by Robbie Burns.

It was quite charming to see this sweet little moth blend so easily into a work of art!
