What a find. A few months ago, I found this print, unframed at a garage sale for $8. Recently I sold some handmade treassure at a market and decide to frame my little darling. While at the frame shop I walked into an op shop and found a girl version, for $12. I couldn't leave her there, she needed a home, so I now ave 2 crying children.
Why do they cry? I don't know, but they are so lovely. My kids are fascinated by them, as I am, but I can't keep collecting them can I? That's a bit morbid, a house filled with crying children.
The girl print has some water damage at the bottom. I am reluctant to change the dimensions of the print, but am unsure if I can remove the water marks, Tut!
They are both by an Artist called G or J Bragolin. He has done numerous crying children. But my little boy is by far the most beautiful.
The crying boy looks a lot like Alby, except with brown eyes.
Hiya if you google Bragolin you will find that the crying prints are associated with an urban myth!!!...Di
ReplyDeleteThanks. It's a little spooky, but only if you believe it.
ReplyDeleteI had the little girl one plus a different crying boy. They were given to me after my grandma passed. She bought them only cause they were the spitting image of my brother and myself.
