| For SITAR |
I am showing a favourite painting I have in my house. It is actually a framed postcard my departed mother brought me from a trip she made to Paris back in the day. I love it.
Sharing Tom's comment on the postcard (who knows, perhaps):
...the iconic white-washed architecture of Santorini, Greece. The photo features characteristic Cycladic houses with arched ceilings, white exterior walls, and a prominent exterior staircase, reminiscent of the village of Oia?

Beautiful photograph, a lovely memory of your mother!
ReplyDeleteWonderful card and very beautiful that reminds you of your mother's trip to Paris!!
