Description

this piece would have been made when he was about 19 years old

I found these at an antique shop in New Hampshire

Pretty decorative patterns along every edge

This is one of several finely executed watercolors of floral specimens I am listing by a May Elizabeth Green

Braille Alphabet Cards, School of the Blind, Watertown, MA c. 1940s - Sold Individually iron sculpture this piece would have beenI've never learned braille but these make me want to, and I think hanging one on the wall where one would see it all the time would prompt one, often, to imagine how it would be to experience the world without sight. Which for me at least stimulates both empathy and imagination. And, perhaps ironically, I find these, in their very 1940s or so institutional manner, very visually satisfying. Produced by the Perkins School for the Blind, Watertown, MA. 3
