The artwork titled “She felt herself changing” was created by artist Charles Robinson in 1913. This piece is an illustration in the Art Nouveau style and is a part of the series for the book “Margaret’s Book” written by H. Felding-Hall.
The illustration depicts a young girl in a moment of transformation, emphasizing the mystical and dreamlike quality often found in Art Nouveau works. The girl is sitting on a bed, with her posture and expression conveying a sense of contemplation or realization. The flowing lines and organic shapes in the bedding and background are characteristic of the Art Nouveau movement’s aesthetic. The color palette is soft, with a predominance of pale, washed-out hues that contribute to the ethereal atmosphere of the scene. The quaint and delicate nature of the imagery is in line with the book’s themes of childhood and wonder.
