I watched the series Elementary!!! What a great series! And you're absolutely right about the grey walls; the brand reflects a lot of light and sometimes ruins the photographs. And oil paint was certainly the most widely used paint at that time.
Here are my two favourites... simply because they convey a sense of calm and I love the setting. Very beautiful.
You picked two nice ones, although I wouldn't put the first one on my wall. It's nice, but it reminds me of the hardship of those days. I would definitely not want to be reminded of handwashing 😜
That's true... it would be a permanent reminder, so I'll stick with the second option.🤣
🤣 I didn't want to convince you to "not like it" 😬😂
But I still like the background scenery... the hands are another matter.🤣
