A couple of weeks ago Barbra joan posted on her blog a picture of Mrs. Wright and her art students. This picture was taken in 1888. I knew at that very moment I had to have this in my studio. So, I asked Barbra joan if I could print off the computer a copy of her picture and put it in my studio. She said I will do one better I have an extra copy and will send it to you. Well, it is HERE and I am so excited. I will have this professionally matted and framed and will put right above my computer desk in my studio. This way I can view it daily. Barbra joan thank you so much for your amazing generosity. I truly love this photo.

Omgosh Veronica , I'm so glad that you love it as much as I do. It's a real piece of history isn't it? and I would say that Mrs. Wright is the one standing to the left of the easel. She seems to be the older one, and has that look!!
WHAT A TREASURE! Barbra joan, I mean ... and the photo is amazing also! A story in each individual face, a story in the collective, a story behind the painting ... you can look at that forever and invent ...
What a wonderful gift to receive in the mail and I'm sure it looks wonderful in your studio...so sorry I haven't visited much...life has been crazy. I'm off to catch up on the rest of your blog!
What a keepsake! I love to look at old picture like that!!
How are you?? :)
Wow!
I love historic photographs. The fact that these ladies were all artists makes it that much more exciting to me.
Thanks for sharing this!
