Shadow Decoration
Charles Courtney Curran, 1887
I remember the day my beloved Latin teacher unrolled this print from the mailing tube to show to our class. I loved the print, loved the subject matter, loved the shadows. When Bernie and Cho moved they gave me their beautifully framed print and it’s hanging on my walls at home.
(I tried to make the image larger, to no avail. Sorry!)

Ooh! That is absolutely gorgeous. The shadows are amazing. I just posted below, but Ill comment here, too. This is a wonderful idea, and I’ll enjoy participating! My art is up at my blog. http://www.amylovesbud.blogspot.com
Lovely art! It looks so contemporary! (sp?)
Such an entrancing use of light/shadow through the sheets!!
Beautiful work in itself, added pleasure because of the memories, eh?
I like that too. It looks so natural.My spotlight (for two weeks) is up now at Seasonal Soundings.Janie
I have often seen shadows on walls of trees, etc, and thought–if I could keep that shadow, that would be good.
That is a beautiful print. So often things like shadows, clouds, and the changing scenery calls God to my mind.
