“The glasshouse”
Part of the “The bookbinder’s world” tanzaku series.
(cont’d from above) Is there a gardener inside, amidst the greenery? Or is it a single visitor? What is he or she really up to?
The Old Botanical Garden glasshouse and the bench in front were in fact empty on the day I visited, but I decided to add two small characters, not so clearly defined, one outside, another inside, each to their own world… As if a story is about to begin.
