"A Scene in Western Spain" by Wells M. Sawyer
Today, I'm revisiting the beautiful 1930's scrapbook I found in an antique mall in Ohio last year. The wonderful works of art snipped and saved by a young woman many years ago provides a touch of true 1930's art for all us to enjoy! I'll soon be sharing her entire collection of art illustrations in the coming weeks, as each offers a treasure to behold! I hope you enjoy the selections as much as I do!
For more Monday Blues and to learn how to join, go to Smiling Sally's Blue Monday!
Thank you Sally for sharing this great blogging activity for all to join!
Happy Blue Monday everyone!

Lovely painting. Did this girl do the paintings, or just saved the prints?

Cindy,
ReplyDeleteThis young girl snipped these art prints from a publication back in the 1930's and scrapbooked them!
Wayyyyyyy beautiful! A sunny scene especially on a very cold Jan. morning here. :-)
ReplyDeleteBut I just can't "get into Blue." :-) This is just me. But will you please come over and see a different side of 'Ol' Auntie'..., on this first Monday in 2010? ,-)
Hugs...
What an interesting picture to find in a scrapbook. I'm a "scrapper" myself and look forward to seeing more of your vintage pages.

ReplyDeleteI'm so glad that young woman's efforts were not wasted and that you are sharing it with those of us who really appreciate it. I think she would be very happy. Have a beautiful day. Twyla
ReplyDeleteTranquil scene - I really enjoyed your share today!
ReplyDeleteWouldn't you love to have a poster of that scene to have framed and hung on a wall? It is so pretty. You find some amazing treasures; I have never looked for old scrapbooks in antique stores, what a good idea.
ReplyDeleteI know the young women would be happy that you stumbles upon her work and that all of us are enjoying her treasure. Thanks for sharing your find.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I love pictures of Spain. I have two prints (watercolor) by Mariano Sesmero he did of MALaga and Torremolinos we found at an antique store. I love them!
ReplyDeleteHappy Blues~
Beautiful painting! It looks like the gorgeous blue sky is reflecting in all things!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
