Emma Dilmore's Marvelous Bird and Girl and Flowers in Great Antique Lemon Gold Frame old kitchen tool I believe this sweet castThis is one of several c. 1890s drawings by a brilliant young Emma Dilmore that I purchased from a seller near Kansas City, MO and just exactly the sort of watercolor drawing I am forever searching for.
