Yardley (Sold)


30" x 40" oil on canvas

This chair was passed down from my mom's side of the family. On the back hangs my mom's favorite needlepoint that her mom, Alice, made for her. My dad re-caned the seat and the small book on top of the pile is a set of scriptures that belonged to his father. The other two books are full of Yardley family genealogy, which is from my mom's side of the family. It is likely that the chair comes from the Yardley family as well.
