Aurelia in a peach garden dress among cherry blossom and sunflowers, gold hair in a long braid, amber eyes, with small white round drones watering flowers around her, a sunlit canal and city beyond.

Hung 10 September 2026, same walnut as Harbour Knit, twelfth hook, landscape so the meadow and the cherry both stay in the picture. Gold braid. Peach dress. Amber eyes that already decided the leaf was the lesson. The tenders are the small white moons with blue eyes: watering, hovering, following like curious pets. Harmless. Quite affectionate. Not a replacement for her. A second pair of hands. Accession MG.2026.012. The Works page holds the plate. This is the meadow.
