Hand-painted colored picture of TH

Description

1975? Hand-painted colored picture of TH. About 3½" x 7⅛". €30 from Daniel et Lilli, Marché Dauphine, Saint-Ouen, France, June, '19.

Here was one of two surprises in a blisteringly hot weekend foray to the Marché aux Puces! "Daniel et Lilli" is basically a button shop on the first floor of the Marché Dauphine. I did find buttons, but I found more brooches and drawings. The helpful attendant just kept bringing me more things! These lovely finds made up for an otherwise not-so-successful day. The bunny sleeps blissfully against a tree while the tortoise passes by. What lovely work, and what a lovely "save" from the fate of most ephemera for this one-of-a-kind object!
