The Plaza Celebrates the Hotel's Most Lovable Guest, Eloise
October 16, 2013
Hilary Knight brought Eloise to life with his playful illustrations nearly sixty years ago, and is again taking pen to paper to conjure up the latest in Eloise's (mis)adventures. Ever since Eloise moved into The Plaza, generations of mothers and daughters, aunts and nieces have reveled in the antics of the precocious six-year-old. Like The Plaza itself, Eloise captured the hearts of New Yorkers and world travelers in 1955 when the book was first published, and she still does so today. Beginning this November, The Plaza pays homage to Eloise's enduring place in the hotel's history with a series of newly designed limited edition prints and commemorative art pieces by Hilary Knight.
The special collaboration launches with a birthday tea celebration on November 4, hosted by Hilary Knight. From 4:00pm to 6:00 pm, guests are invited to join Knight in The Palm Court for tea, treats and a book signing. Join Hilary Knight under the famed Eloise portrait that he painted over 50 years ago. Eloise loves, loves, loves birthdays, and each child will receive a rawther mahvelous gift bag at the conclusion of the event.
The Plaza and Hilary Knight will introduce a holiday-themed limited edition print of the ever-charming Eloise, the first in a six-part series. Throughout the year, Eloise enthusiasts will delight at Valentine's Day, Easter, the 4th of July, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas-themed prints. Fans who purchase all six prints will receive a custom seventh birthday-themed print, signed by Knight with a special custom inscription. Each series will include 100 prints, available for $250 each.
Since everyone absolutely loooves Eloise, The Plaza and Hilary Knight will be releasing additional themed print series in 2014 and 2015. These will feature Eloise at her mischievous best in well-known settings from her series of adventures as a world traveler in favorite destinations from New York to Moscow; and a series featuring Eloise in her favorite locales at The Plaza, the place she calls home.
