feeling perhaps like workers' housing

and he looks as if he is taking his role as defender of his creation pretty seriously

but I might guess that they were and that they date to about the same time

I don't really know if this was because she had few friends or not

which frame a long view with mountain in the distance

French Tailor's Receipt, 1900, With Scattered Portrait Doodles art pottery green vase feeling perhaps like workers' housingI love old pages of scattered doodles like this and can't resist them. And to my eye quite a satisfying overall composition formed here. Done on the back of a French tailor's receipt, dated 1900. Scattered toning and stains, and found folded in quarters, probably tucked inside of a book and forgotten for 100 years or so. 10 5 8" x 8". Fold lines and stains as evident which feel very much all of a piece with it.
