My love isn't just for Vintage furniture, I have this love for these prints/paintings as well.
I have two in my home now, but they are only 8x10 I would love to come across large ones.
As I am fascinated with Old Furniture always wondering where it has been, who has sat in it what the story is behind each piece, I believe these prints are quite the same.
Some are Historical , but some are not, And as I do with furniture, I wonder what the story is behind each one.
There is something classic about each one
Many I have found are dated back to the 1700-early 1900,s, and many are of the French.
Maybe that is Why I love them so much, they remind me of the Classic French Style..

My mom collects the vintage ones of children. They are so neat and not like anything we had here in the States.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing, Amy
Hi, just came across your blog. I think that the handsome young man in the first picture is Bonnie Prince Charlie who led the Jacobite rebellion in 1745. A Scottish hero. Liz
