Martha Print

A portrait of the beloved Martha Mae by Jean Cate. The namesake of the shop, Martha is present in the shop most days, quietly receiving well deserved pets and attention from visitors while dozing in her basket. In this rendering of Martha, she is sitting regally and attentively, surely daydreaming about forthcoming treats.
