French la Vie

 

Another lucky find! Several floral croquis designs for silk fabrics.

This is a sampling of one of the panels. Works of art. Clever, creative,

and set aside in a massive folder for me to find a hundred plus years later.

What will I leave behind? Will anyone find it? I would hope we would leave paths of love.

 

 

 

"Have you ever heard
of a flower that never needs
Water, soil, or sunshine?

A flower that stays in full bloom
Through summer and winter
Through good times and bad"

 

 

"A flower that rarely gets smaller,
growing endlessly.
A few lost petals,
A little droop,
but, without a doubt,
it will always regrow
into something more beautiful."

 

 

"I have one of those.

I call it Love."
