Ingeborg


Her father was a gardener
her brother Bror as well.
Bror got a prize from
the KING for a rose (named H55)
he cultivated.
Ingeborg painted beautiful paintings.
She painted flowers.

When I grew up
I felt a connection with her.
I admired her.

I never met her,
my grandmothers sister.
I am carrying her neclace
around my neck.

This little story of your great aunt and her brother is a jewel of a story, Olga. Isn't it amazing how their love for beauty and art has passed down to you?
