[18th-century floral design - daffodils and butterfly]

France or the Low Countries, [ca. 1750] Folio sheet (ca. 32.5 x 21.0 cm). Tipped-in in a recent passe-partout. = This is an original floral drawing, with daffodils and a pretty butterfly, in pencil and ink; probably designs for tapestries, wallpaper, murals, or the decoration of wooden panels used in cupboards or other furniture. The rendering of the leaves is in Louis XV style, placing these designs in (approximately) the mid-18th century. From a suite of drawings on laid paper, three of which show a watermark with a post horn in a shield and the letters L G V below. This is Gravel SLD.346.1, found on a 1791 Thomas Jefferson letter from Richmond, VA, but doubtlessly originating from the Dutch paper mill of Lubertus Van Gerrevink, renowned worldwide for the quality of his paper. Another sheet bears the watermark IV, which indicates Jean Villedary, a French paper maker. Both watermarks have been used over a considerable period of time but are essentially 18th-century. Some light age-wear, some staining and chipping in the lower margin, otherwise in very good condition.

Despite his stammer and inability to dance, Nan is captivated and takes him under her wing. When Nan learns that Charles is from the landed gentry, she refuses his offer of marriage fearing that their difference is social status will ruin their chances of happiness. But, it is the war itself which seems to end any hope for them when Charles is reported missing in action, believed killed, in the skies over Germany. Meanwhile, Carrie starts a passionate affair following a chance encounter with Todd Coverdale on a railway platform in Lincoln. When Carrie finds herself, alone and pregnant after Todd disappears without explanation, her only option is to leave the ATS and move to Daffy Cottage, the home Todd inherited from his Aunt.
