Children’s Art from Switzerland

These paintings from children in Switzerland were created in the 1960s. We particularly love the old fashioned zoo scenes  where children ride elephants. Two street scenes from the city of Basel show a clear winter day and grey winter day. Both are wonderfully evocative of a city in winter in Northern climates. Note the fabulous old black convertible in the grey scene. These paintings are all available as poster-size prints from our Stone Soup Store.
