I found this image on The Muscleheaded Blog then forgot about it which was neglectful of me especially as I liked the image especially the dog. The painting is by David Uhl and comes from an old German post card he purchased, he wrote “This piece was composed from a photograph I secured the rights to from a German archive. Hence the 1922 European looking girls, I considered it quite a wonderful find, so I painted it in a fashion to respect the quality of its time period. I tried putting more modern model type of women in but it looked wrong. I also wanted to paint it in a vintage palette to keep its roots firmly in antiquity.

About
My wife, bless her tells me that I am rapidly becoming, or perhaps that should read have become a “Grumpy old fart”, so what better forum to spread my doom, gloom and paranoia than WordPress. I also have a love of old pictures, postcards and Edwardian Actresses, in particular Miss Gabrielle Ray which I hope to share at regular intervals. As my collection has grown I have set up another blog which contains only pictures of Miss Ray. Gabrielle Ray Thank you for viewing and comments are welcome.
