Bought theses for a dollar each ..have no idea what they really are or where they came from ..if anyone knows I would appreciate there help , on the back it says Kane cameo Montreal and Cynthia Nesbit by Thomas Flatman ...the last name is hard to make out so I think it says flatman
I hope someone knows information on these old pictures:)
These are super common sold everywhere in the 1950s. Still, very charming to hang. Google Cynthia Nesbit picture.
There seems to be zero info on the web. A search of Thomas Flatman miniatures and several searches of Cynthia Nesbit by Thomas Flatman came up empty. I don't know who the other woman is supposed to be.
You can always remove the backing and see what is on the inside.
If you are still curious, then email these photos (not sideways) to this address and ask if they were originally painted by Thomas Flatman.
