[QUOTE="KSW, post: 3924305, member: 8708"]I picked up this little picture from a charity shop and thought it was a delightful little scene. The characters are so wonderfully depicted with the street seller and the children. The faces are so cleverly drawn. I’m not great with traditional dress- Turkey? Morocco? I’ve looked with a loupe and can see no pixels so think pen and watercolour, maybe a tourist souvenir. It’s been framed without much care with cuts in the card frame and a cheap outer frame. I’m going to reframe it but would love to hear any thoughts as to age or origin please. The picture is 13 x17cm. Thankyou for looking :-) [ATTACH=full]321917[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]321918[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]321919[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]321920[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]321921[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]321922[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]321923[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
