A Letter to an American Woman Who Wants to Learn French

Sparked by a single magazine page, this piece traces a lineage — a French great-great-grandmother who came to America in the late 1800s. A vintage envelope, a faded photograph, and a fragment of a letter in French are layered into the surface, holding what language alone cannot.

  • Original, signed, with certificate of authenticity.

    If you have questions about scale, color, or how a piece might work in your space before purchasing, I'm always happy to help.
