My friend, Elizabeth, just sent me an email with the wonderful image above attached. Immediately smitten, I googled the artist, Jean Charlot, (1898-1979). I quickly discovered that one of the artist's favorite motifs was of mothers wearing their babies!
Here are some of my favorite Charlot works that I unearthed. I love the warmth and softness of the images. Enjoy! (Thanks Elizabeth!)
Hi, and welcome. My name is Leigh. After over ten years of living in NYC, I recently moved to the 'burbs with my amazing husband, Taro, and our three beautiful children. Once upon a time, I was a sculptor. I am a lifelong unschooler. I am passionate about issues related to pregnancy, birth, and motherhood, as well as art, design, fashion, travel, books, music, and food. I hope you enjoy my eclectic mix of topics. Feel free to join in the conversation! I love comments and emails.
