Today I found an old picture of a baby, and, even though it's toyless, I had to have it. It's the coolest Victorian baby photo I've ever come across. The baby, dressed in an immaculate white dress, bonnet, and cape, resting on a bearskin rug, has a stunned expression that I interpret as "Oh my goodness: I just crapped my pants!" (At least, that's what I remember this look signifying, back in my baby-sitting days...)
Such a funny photos for sure! I love it!
ReplyDeleteI just bought 4 antique photos on Etsy. Each one with either children with teddies or dolls or ladies with teddies. I can't wait to get them!
I truly believe we are "kindred spirits" for the things we seem to collect!

Let's hope that's what it is. I have to admit, this looks more like post-neonatal electroshock therapy.
