Irene Hennelly's 1908 Leaf Ornament Watercolor fertility goddess quintessentially mid-century pieceI just think this is lovely and fairly unusual as far as antique ornament studies go in being monochromatic (aptly) and I think quite elegant in its relative subtlety; I'd hang it right over a gathering of matte green Arts and Crafts pottery and call it a day! 13 1 2" x 10", watercolor and ink of watercolor paper. Very good condition, with minor edge wear. The date. is stamped in pink at lower right.
