This is a late Nineteenth Century to early Twentieth Century reproduction of the famous painting. Expertly reproduced on board, this shows the increasing ability of Nineteenth Century printing companies to accurately depict the colors and textures of original paintings. Displayed in a hand-stenciled, ebonized wooden frame, it may not be the original, but it’s an interesting look into the history of the decorative arts.
I found this object several years ago while on a trip to Louisiana with my family and Bertie.
The original in The Royal Collection. |
