I was most taken by this picture inside the Hilliard home in Michigan, which just gives such a great glimpse into the lives of the occupants. I may not know what the two tubes are leaning next to the piano, but my eye was caught by the painting above them.
The photo I'm working from is a photo of a page of a photo album, taken several decades ago. The one I'm interested in is the lower middle photo.

This painting is probably still in the family of my ex-husband. It was hanging in the guest bedroom the first time I visited and met his parents. I don't remember the story behind it. Perhaps his mother painted it, or was the model, or one of her relatives. It's done in lovely pastel colors, mainly blues and a bit of pink, if I remember correctly. It reminded me of Whistler's work. Probably because of a long gowned young woman holding a fan!
Sepia Saturday suggestion for this week is...

I see some printing happening.
I wondered if I have any photos the prints I made in Art School? Not likely.
I do have a few in a box somewhere at the back of a closet...waiting till I get famous. Right.
