The story behind the photo.
This photo is of my Great Aunties on my
mother's side of the the family.
Taken around 1937.
mother's side of the the family.
Taken around 1937.
The one on the far left in the photo, is Iseta,
she was getting married and was leaving the family
to live in Roussillon in France with her new husband.
So this was the last photo of them together,
she is the only one still living,
but she now lives in Italy,
she is now in her 95th year.
The other two sisters, are married as well
and migrated to Canada with their husbands.

touches of lavendar and white.
