This fresco sketch reminds me always of the main fireplace in our house. We inherited massive chains on which to hang our pots that haven't changed in design since the time of this Carmenite. When I look at the gown, though, the following words from the tags on my children's clothes always come to mind : Keep This Garment Away from Fire. I hope she did!
The mountains & the lake, people & places, children & chickens, frescoes & felines, barbera & books.

Hi Louise,
It's not just long gowns that need to be carefully kept away from open flame. Also long hair! Good thing I live in this day and age...I love both (working on the long hair part again though. Patience (sigh)) - Monday, 16 March, 2009
