This guardian angel picture belonged to my grandmother, Mary Evaline Haning Brooks. My parents gave it to me several
years before they died. Grandma had it in the early fifties, for sure, and I do not know how much earlier. There are many
reproductions and derivative works but I have never seen any acknowledgement of who painted the picture. I have tried several
times to find out who the artist is and when the picture was first sold. I would appreciate any information my visitors can
send me. You may post the information in my guestbook that is on the first page of this site.
