Scenes from B&W postcards & photos brought to life with colour
Melrose Market Cross c1905 My take from a B&W postcard by A R Edwards. The Mercat Cross was traditionally a symbol of the trading rites of Scottish towns & villages. The shaft was replaced in 1988 & the capital, a much eroded unicorn for the Scottish Royal Arms, was replaced in 1990.
Shown framed & unframed to see painting without glass reflection.

INTERESTED?
Paintings are difficult to display online due to glass reflections. They are better seen first hand. If you would like to come and see a painting, or are interested in purchasing one, please email me, phone, or use the contact page for a question.
I have added galleries of paintings (framed with glass), scanning them without glass on the Contact, Scans, Sale Item, Info page to see the images with more clarity.
