Based on Louisa May Alcott's life, Little Women follows the adventures of sisters, Jo, Meg, Beth and Amy March. Jo is trying to sell her stories for publication, but the publishers are not interested – her friend, Professor Bhaer, tells her that she has to do better and write more from herself. Begrudgingly taking this advice, Jo weaves the story of herself and her sisters and their experience growing up in Civil War America.

Auction at Bidding Owl
Marblehead artist Alicia Cohen faithfully reproduces the owl artwork that is painted on the fireplace at Louisa May Alcott's home Orchard House in Concord. Massachusetts. The original owl was painted by Abigail May Alcott, the youngest Alcott sister. Abigail May trained as an artist in Boston and Europe. She was one of the few successful female professional artists of her time. Alicia painted the screen in acrylics on plywood. The screen measures roughly 48 inches fully open and roughly 36 inches high. Alicia is an award-winning Marblehead artist, well-known for her extraordinary and detailed portraits of animals. You can see additional examples of her artwork at www.thepaintgirl.net
