As you may know, I am from Normandy. The region of apples, cider, Calvados, butter, milk and cream… and cows! Once I went to a thrift store and was looking for a vintage frame. When home I took the picture out and discovered this card board picture which had been used to be the back of it. It was a surprise for me to find such a big vintage picture. This was on an agricultural competition the ox ( or beef???) had won a price.
Living in Normandy I had a blog some time ago and decided to create this one to continue the adventure with you through visits of special spots in Normandy and my hobbies DIY and home decoration. Hope to begin a new adventure with you!

I'm struck by how small that woman looks beside the huge ox. Will you keep the picture?
RépondreSupprimerI think Normandy is beautiful! I grew up on a farm with lots of cattle. That is a beautiful cow. What a fun find!
RépondreSupprimerWhen we visited Normandy, we admired the cows and the lush green fields they were in. My grandfathers both had cows and I enjoyed seeing them up close on the farms when I was very young.
RépondreSupprimerIt's so very pastoral where you live. I remember Normandy being so unspoiled by modern hotels and shopping centers and housing developments. At least along the coast it has been preserved to the time of WWII.
