SILHOUETTES

Those who know me know I love PBS's Masterpiece Theatre. I look forward to Sunday evenings and watching the various mini-series based on books written by British authors. Recently I fell in love with Cranford. It is such a marvelous, simple tale of life in a small English village in 1842. Return to Cranford aired this past Sunday and is as delightful as the original.

As I was watching the series I was struck my the importance of silhouettes during this time period. It was their form of a modern-day photo. I have several silhouettes in my home and most recently my very artistic brother made me a beautiful silhouette of my three children. He did an amazing job and I will treasure dearly.
