Etudes and Souvenirs
I made this series in memory of Thierry Rosset, a gifted artist and friend who died in 2012, Some years earlier he made me the priceless gift of a packet of envelopes from letters written by his grandfather to his young son, who became Thierry's' father. Dating from the late 1800's, they were addressed in elegant script, and bore postmarks but no stamps, the child having torn them out for his stamp collection.
