The story behind Mrs Darling Tidies the Children's Minds

The scene

Night in the nursery, etched lines with a soft aquatint tone and one warm nightlight glow. Mrs Darling sorts through the day the way a good mother does, putting the naughtiness away like clothes into drawers.

The style

A night-piece etching: deep, dark hatching and a single soft source of light, so the glow from the drawer is the brightest thing in the room.

The inspiration

From Peter Pan by J. M. Barrie (1911), Chapter 1: Mrs. Darling first heard of Peter when she was tidying up her children's minds.
