The lithographed card caused a controversy in some quarters of Victorian English society when it was published in 1843 because it prominently features a child taking a sip from a glass of wine. |

About Me
Hello, I am Jolene. I live in a tiny speck on the world map - a garden city called Singapore. I am a crafter, gamer, freelance web designer, and a collector of all sorts, from pictures to little trinkets; and among all those that inspired me, I'd share them here. "The Lost & The Found" are things I've found to be buried under the overflowing library of today's web. I want share it with people of like interest and to those who never knew its existence. I don't write alot, that's why I call this a Picture(book) blog. And, I hope you'll find something inspiring today! Thank you for stopping by~♥ n__n
