Atmospheric 1910s-20s Snapshot of Beauty at Beach gift book I presume this wonderful creature

I presume this wonderful creature was a whimsy of sorts made by a blacksmith

and in near perfect condition

it is the blur of the mother's cropped face at upper right (feeling all the more shadowy/elusive to the naked eye) that really makes this

Atmospheric 1910s-20s Snapshot of Beauty at Beach gift book I presume this wonderful creatureYou know I love an atmospheric old photo, and this one feels very much that, a flapper esque bathing beauty emerging from the sea and through the fog, and as if crossing from one era into another, too. 5 1 2" X 3 5 16" and in very good condition.
