NOTE.

This volume grew out of an exhibition of the pictures of Pamela Bianco—a child of 12 years old—which was held in the Leicester Galleries, London, during the spring of 1919. Her remarkable talent for decorative invention, and her poetic imagery drew crowds to the exhibition, and obtained the enthusiastic praise of the entire press. A selection of the drawings there shown are here reproduced. They are accompanied by the exquisite poems that Walter de la Mare was inspired by them to write.
