This was originally a watercolor print, which unfortunately was converted to black & white when published in a book in 1897. 116 years later, I found it, and played with it: here is the result. I hope you like it! - Judy

Here is a charming and touching image of a young mother tenderly kissing her child. I've included the original image in sepia, tinted, and shaded color. Enjoy - Judy

Vintage Oriental Graphic: Beautiful Geisha #2
Here's another geisha with a musical instrument; this time strings. She would be beautiful on a greeting card, or perhaps printed on transparent film, and placed on a lighted glass block. How about a paper luminary? The possibilities are endless! - Judy

Vintage Oriental Graphic: Beautiful Geisha #1
I have discovered a set of prints of lovely geishas - - -this one is wearing a richly-colored kimono, and holding a flute. As with all the graphics I offer here, they are copyright-free. I will bring you the others as I finish them; each one takes meticulous work to separate it from its background, then isolate the segments to tint them. I hope you like the results.
