Edith Le Breton (British 1912-1992) 'Reflections' (The Flat Iron Market in Salford) † signed 'Edith Le Breton' (lower right), oil on canvas, 35.5 x 46 cm, framed 49.5 x 59.5 cm Artist's poem verso: 'Times move on - but on reflection, there we see / Where the old Flat Iron Market, used to be / For when the falling snow, like white blossom from above / Fall upon the busy stalls below, and as the people hurried by / Some stayed to gaze upon the stalls, and buy / Their clothes, or shoes, or boots, to keep them dry / For this chill, cold day, possessed a beauty, all its own / But to some alas, its beauty was unknown'
