We have always needed stories. We always will.
During the toughest of times, like now, we turn to art.
The art of a story . . . a photograph . . . a painting . . .
An old photograph has the ability to bring an old story into the present, to bring an old memory to the forefront, unite some hearts and make us smile.
My longtime fascination with old photos and the forgotten stories behind them led me to this story.
I've been known to make up stories for old photos I find in flea markets.
The true story that goes with this beautiful mysterious photo is more magical than fiction.
I love this story.
