I saw this book (princesses) whilst on holiday in Rome and have been trying to find it in english ever since. Only just got this new fangled internet thing which has opened up a whole new minefield.

Wow! I was just looking into your archives and came across this post. This is beautiful illustration. It really makes me want to quit my job, move to France and live the life of a true artist – lol. I love it all! Thanks for the inspiration :)

for those who would love to read or browse her books, order from amazon or fnac, well, you’ ll be surprised how easy it is to own a copy, or all for that matter…
