Lucky me made a getaway out of the city and up to Maine this past weekend. Every turn was like visiting a different time in history. Before heading to a cabin in the woods, we stayed in Portland for a night in an old old inn by the railroad tracks with a tiny sink right next to a twin bed, visited the studio of a friend who is a luthier, and found many treasures tucked away in the second hand shops....
including this lithograph of Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands by Paul Berthon. This was quite a little splurge, but I just couldn't leave this behind. I've always adored the art nouveau style and so to find an original lithograph from 1901 was a real treat. Just look at that bonnet and tulips!
