<p>[QUOTE="NewEngland, post: 11961110, member: 6071"]That is a beautiful teacup. Re: the tiny sun, I had a tour among the beautiful old folk art including theorem paintings on velvet at Old Sturbridge Village (Massachusetts, US) where I learned that many times, if you see a butterfly or bee on a theorem painting, it was a probably drop of paint or a dropped brush that left a mark, so the artist cleverly painted a little insect around the spot. Also wanted to say your photos are great![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
