I'm a antique dealer and Historical Folk artist. I created this blog to document and highlight my artwork along with my day to day life as a Artist, Antique dealer and collector. My favorite two periods in history are France's Ancien Régime, the time of French Queen Marie Antoinette 1770-1789 and the antebellum period of the American South 1830-1860. Both of theses periods ended tragically with war. I intend to explore furniture, architecture, decorative arts, culture, history, fashion and the people that made up these two fascinating periods in time. I recently moved back to my roots of Mobile, Alabama after living away for 17 years. Come and explore the restoration of my turn-of-the century Art's and crafts bungalow into a Antebellum show place.
Everyone is so thin! Too bad the artist is dead, I would like him to paint my likeness! LOL!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Ms. Divine. Richard at My Old Historic House
ReplyDeleteThis was right after the french revolution. I'm sure food was still scarce in France plus the new fashion was to look like a Classical Greek figure.
