  • Details
    Capture the timeless elegance of the Victorian era with this beautiful antique oval frame featuring a contemporary profile portrait. The frame itself is a genuine antique, crafted with a deep, cove-style profile and adorned with four ornate gesso-on-wood cartouches of overflowing fruit and foliage. It has been finished in a rich, aged gold that beautifully highlights the intricate textures of the botanical moldings. Housed within this historic frame is a modern print on canvas of a dark-haired woman in profile, evoking the moody, romantic aesthetic of late 19th-century portraiture while offering the durability of modern materials.

    As a true antique, the frame possesses a lovely, authentic patina that tells the story of its age. There is visible wear that adds to its primitive appeal, including characteristic cracking in the gesso (typical for the age), some small chips to the delicate moldings, and minor loss on the outer edges. The back of the frame shows its original wood construction and antique hanging wire, while the canvas print is securely held in place with a newer black walnut backing board. Measuring approximately 12 inches by 14 inches, this piece is perfectly sized for a gallery wall or as a standalone accent, bringing a sophisticated blend of old-world craftsmanship and modern artistry to any interior.

    Measurements (approximate - rounded to the nearest quarter inch):
    14.25 inches in height
    12.25 inches in width
    1.5 inches in depth
    Canvas print is 8 inches x 10 inches
