Naive 19th C Pennsylvania Watercolor Drawing of Civil War Soldiers With Swords swan-shaped 1940s I believeI never hesitate when I find 19th c watercolor drawings like this, likely done by a school child the combination of grace and awkwardness and immediacy, together with the use of color, just makes my heart ache. I found this, and another I am listing by the same person I believe, in Lancaster County, PA, and am pretty certain that is around where they originated. Most typically one finds these cut into smaller bits; rarer to find the complete original
