Evocative Bookplate of Florida Key Sponge in Beautiful Old Wooden Frame mixed media painting I especially love this little

I especially love this little bit of reddish stamp giving the hat of the boy at right a little pompom

but could swing  Scandanavian with some winter berries or a spring tulip or two

stitched up the front with red thread

branches of cherry blossoms or red berries

to her pearls

Evocative Bookplate of Florida Key Sponge in Beautiful Old Wooden Frame mixed media painting I especially love this littleI'm not sure from whence it came or how it came to be someone very carefully cut out and mounted the information about the bookplate on the back of the frame but it has a bit of the feel of having been hung in an old library or museum or science department. I love the idea of hanging an image of a giant sponge right over one's desk or reading chair, and also love how it looks a bit like a brain, and also a portrait, with these little points at the top
