In a cupboard here lies hidden and protected what certainly was once Adèle and Joséphine's greatest treasure...
A very old album filled to the brim with the sweetest antique postcards...
Antiques have a strange power on our romantic minds and are able to bring us in a long forgotten world, a fantasy world...
but this is only true today and for some, at a age of technology and permanent connexion...
Adèle and Joséphine didn't had any television or computer, and they were even not "on Facebook"...Lives and life were different at the "Belle Epoque" at around 1900...
November 2014, dark cold evening, I'm looking at that old odd album containing postcards each adressed to both Joséphine and Adèle, and most signed by "Tante Maria"...
Who was she? Who were them? I wonder...
And I imagine a cold evening in a dark drawing room only lit by candlelight... Two little girls working together on their album, on their precious postcard collection...
What were they going to get from Tante Maria for Christmas? I wonder...The wind is cold and Adèle and Joséphine and Tante Maria are all long gone with it...
What was it like then? I wonder...
