Rare Prints Gallery

Two classes ago, after taking a very difficult test, we took a little trip to downtown Franklin.  The intention was for all of us to walk together, however, it was 40 degrees and a little bit rainy, so we made the decision to drive.


If nothing else, I learned that day that there is a free parking garage in downtown Franklin.  Apparently, I've been living under a rock because I was unaware.


Rare Prints Gallery is right in downtown Franklin. 
I have to admit, It wasn't my favorite place I've visited, but it was interesting nonetheless.  The woman working there (I apologize for forgetting her name) described how these prints were made.  I didn't gather a whole lot of information, but she certainly knew exactly what she was talking about. After she was finished speaking with us, we roamed around for a while and gawked at how high the prices were. 

I picked up a print of a lemur and I was surprised to discover, despite the size of the print, that it was pretty much more than I make in a month a Publix. So that was a bit frightening.



The visit, though not my favorite, was entertaining, and I had the satisfaction of leaving with a goofy picture of myself mimicking the expensive lemur's expression.
