One man's trash is another man's treasure // Grafflmarkt finding

Twice a year, in spring and fall, there is a huge flea market in my hometown, called: Grafflmarkt. M, my sis, Luis and I went there last night.

It was really nice since it was sunny and kind of warm. We had a beer (well, the grown ups had one) and ate bratwurst, looked at everything people were selling and had a great time.

Then I saw it. A picture. Saw it and fell in love with it! So I bought it for 4,50 Euro. Great deal, cause when I was googleing (made up word right here I guess!)  the picture, I found it online for more than 80 Euro (without a frame), and on an american site they sold exactly the same reproduction from the same studio in Munich for freakin' 4500 $!! That´s crazy! I want to keep it though. I will cherish it even more now though, cause I know it´s worth a lot more than 4,50 Euro.

It´s Peter Paul Rubens "Kopf eines Kindes (Clara-Serena Rubens)" 1616.

These two pictures were flea market findings as well. I have them for a couple of years now, though. 
I want to share them with you anyway:















Did you find any treasures at flea markets/thrift stores so far? Please share them in the comments :)
