Omg so amazing! Reminds me of something my grandmother had hanging in her home.

thanks
thats cool, because such paintings are rare nowadays. many galleries keep them locked and many more are in the proberty of private persons who don´t show them to anyone, but sometimes they appear on auctions if the owners pass away...

Lol, my grandmother was the child of immigrants who grew up during the great depression, she was born in 1916. She kept EVERYTHING!!So not all but a few were from back then, its cool to own a piece of history. We still have this special family bible, that was brought over from Ireland with my great grand parents, its just so cool to own such things.

I agree

Lol yes, the family joke is that the bible is so old. St. Patrick himself wrote it. A few family members wanted to see if the bible was worth anything, but really how could you put a price on such a personal family history?

there is no price for a memory. Beloved people only will be dead if you forget them or give away their valuable stuff without a second thought.
I wouldn´t give away such an old treasure.

Neither would I! I mean thanks to my grandmother's pack rat nature, we discovered so much! My family were allies to the native Americans(found an old native American shield in her closet, because where else would you keep such things) fought for the Union in the civil war, and were rum runners during prohibition. I mean come on that's flipping cool!

that is an exciting past and full of interesting stories.
I am impressed.

I just can say that my house, where my ancestors lived (known from the 15th century) once was a celtic holy place^^°

Wow! That's cool! That's a neat claim on history! Imagine the neat stuff you could find digging around your own yard! I mean they found Richard the 3 under a parking lot!

that would be cool but the place where I live was ripped into two pieces by an earthquake
the only markings were five path gathering at one point in the deep forest, creating a star and five oakes were planted there

funny added story: An old farmer once saw a rainbow going down to earth right in front of one of our old oakes and he started to dig there to find the pot of gold of the Leprechaun^^
that happened just 100 years ago^^

Lol! That is funny! I know of one as well, One of my teachers said that her family got the money to travel to America by catch a Leprechaun, and making him give them his gold. Stories like one sparked a weird tradition, where you chase bunch of people dressed as Leprechaun, there's usually specific one you have to catch, but its amusing all the same. Its weird, but other countries have even stranger traditions.

true that is funny

there is a weird tradition in my country too based on the celtic mother earth godess Brigantia (you may have heard about her as Bridget or St. Bridget) called the virgin carrieng. A virgin is carried on a thrown through the village and the men who carry her, bow in front of every door to beg for children to be born. Sometimes the thrown and the virgin got too heavy and the virgin fell down in front of the door...^^° since then a statue of a virgin is used for this tradition

Lol, okay that's different! But must be cool to see
