Annoyingly, Tom found this one… 😆🇫🇷
Bought in Paris and I absolutely love it.
An old French oil painting of lilacs, all those faded mauves and creams, the sludgy green pot and a lovely little signature in the corner.
And then there’s the frame.
Chipped, battered, bits missing and absolutely perfect exactly as it is. Proper faded French grandeur.
It seems rather fitting that I’m giving Tom the credit , because 43 years ago today, on 2nd September 1983, we went on our first date.
Never did get round to getting married 😂 but apparently we did manage to spend 43 years buying old stuff together.
