un regalo ed un ritratto - a portrait and a present


§ Ieri ho ricevuto un regalo.
Un regalo importante da una persona cara, la mia Nonna.
Mi ha donato un pezzetto della sua storia e di quella di sua suocera, la mia bisnonna a cui apparteneva questo ritratto.
Mi ha donato un sogno di bambina perchè quando lo
ammiravo incantata sognavo che fosse appartenuto ad una principessa e mai più pensavo di poterlo tenere in mano.
Mi sono commossa ieri aprendo il sacchetto in cui era contenuto e ancora una volta mi sono chiesta: " Ma tu,chi sei?"

Strano vero che due amiche abbiano ricevuto un ritratto lo stesso giorno..... mi sembra una magia.




§ Yesterday I received a gift.
An important gift from a dear person, my Granny.
She presented me with a bit of her history and her mother in law's too, my Greatgrandmother to whom this portrait belonged..
She presented me with a child dream because, when I admired it, charmed by its grace, I dreamt it belonged to a princess and I should have never thought of holding it in my hands.
I was touched yesterday opening the little bag which beheld it and once more I asked myself : " Who are you ?".

Rosanna she does not just look like a Princess, she looks like a Queen. I am convinced you are blue blood, Rosanna. :)

What a beautiful heirloom and perfect to hang on the wall of your mini house! It's lovely. Isn't it one of those mini portraits that were so popular in its heyday? I am obviously no expert but it was very much in fashion during a certain historic period to have your portrait painted in miniature.
