Folk Art White Painted Church with Removable Roof swarming birds though I'm honestly not sureI've been finding it hard of late to find folk art buildings I like of a manageable scale, so I was very glad to find this church art Brimfield, with lift off roof, which I believe was constructed to be illuminated, as there is a little carve out for a cord on the back. Well constructed with nice clean lines and nice old paint, and indeed a good, and easy, one to put a light or a few electric candles inside to set aglow. 12 1 4" w x 5 3 8" d x 16 3 8"
