After The Bath




M. found this at Great-Grandma Edna's house yesterday and took a photo. Great-Grandma Edna has had this picture since she was a 16 year old girl. She held onto it for a long time. The things we carry are precious, and sometimes if you carry them long enough, you end up with the picture you carried looking back at you in real life (or at least a rear-view).

The painting is called "After The Bath" and was rendered by Paul Peel, who apparently knew my children before anyone else did. On the other hand, maybe it's true what they say about everyone having a doppelgänger.
