Fox, Rabbit and a Knight at Home

Four rooms in a brown frame make a gentle storybook house. At top left, a play room has a mural of a sandcastle by the sea, with hanging boats, crowns and a sword, while two children show a drawing to a woman who writes beside a model castle. Top right, a fox in a vest sits on a bench by a round table with a woman, a wrapped gift between them, under garlands of ribbon and paper birds. At bottom left, a small rabbit with a ringed tail stands on a blue and yellow chequered floor beside a curved desk and a tufted sofa, under a wall of sketched animals. Bottom right, a knight in armour stands by a desk with a spinning letter wheel while a boy writes, below a wall of coloured letters. Chequered blue and yellow tiles below and ribbon garlands above keep the storybook rooms from ever blurring together.
