Good old internet quickly provided me with a big pile of Charles Keeping (quite unfamiliar to me) and I can see exactly where you're coming from - it's all in the faces I think.Sandy's witteringshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05009803939431014995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3473643361564881319.post-2284449543155968152012-12-20T09:25:34.379+00:002012-12-20T09:25:34.379+00:00The 4th and 5th pictures remind me of the illustra...The 4th and 5th pictures remind me of the illustrations of Charles Keeping, who illustrated many of the novels of Rosemary Sutcliff.

So I looked up Mr Chagall - great use of colour (not managed to find an image that will let me have a great look at the detail but will look later when time permits.<br /><br />Jim, I like Morningside area - I was a student for some time in the ajoining Bruntsfield. A small investigate tells me that Morningtown Ride is a bit older than the Seekers - it was written by a lady called Malvina Reynolds in 1957. She also wrote Little Boxes which I thought was by pete Seeger.
