Summary
Ink illustration, for Jemima Puddle-Duck's Painting Book (published August 1925). The book should have been published in 1924, but in a letter dated 30 December 1924 Beatrix states, 'No new book; should have been a painting book, re-drawn from Jemima, but the engravers were slow.' Jemima enters the shed and the fox closes the door.
