Mother's Day


This rather charming picture by Fernand Lantoine (French, 1876-1955), Mothers with Children in a Village, oil on canvas, 47 3/16" x 47 3/16" sold recently at auction for a very reasonable USD 9,500. Some of Lantoine's work is Gauguin-esq, and this certainly fits into that category.

Today is the birthday of the Queen of Thailand, and as she is considered to be the Mother of the Nation, it is also Mother's Day in Thailand.
