Jan's art restoration
JAS Havanese
This picture being over 100 years old it was quite worn and the only one
he had of his Mother and I was asked if I could restore it. It took research
to find out what type of clothing was worn during that time and what I
found was that during that period it depended on the area and income
level. It was quite a history lesson for me. White clothing was expensive at
the time and many reserved it for church on Sunday or pictures if they
were able to afford it. This woman lived off the land and simply.
