I love her. She came from a National Council of Jewish Women's Thrift Shop about 15 years ago. It's a beautiful deep blue background and written around our hip little gamine, like a halo, are the kind of doodles and phrases (
en francais, naturellement) that you'd find on the notebooks of any girl you went to Junior High with. Suns, choo-choo trains, male figures with declarations about her love of vacations and someone called Dodo.
A signature in the upper left corner simply says "Angelo '62", which is surprising because I find her to be very modern for 1962. But she is, after all, French!
It hangs on the wall across from my bed so she is virtually the first thing I see every morning upon awakening.
click me, mon ami, I will get bigger for you

I bet you say that to ALL the boys.
a bit after Juliette Gréco (which explain the nose...)
She is lovely. You would like thrift shopping in Portland. There are treasures to be found & you have quite the eye.
