Please check out our other listings on ebay ...... from rare antiques to steampunk stuff
.
.
PLEASE NOTE ............ this item is selling AS-IS ....... i will describe it to the best of my ability , but nearly every item i sell is from 50 to 100 years old and will show some sign of wear
. it comes from an estate auction last summer ......
. is it dirty? ...... yes indeed it is ....... clean this one as much or as little as you like ...... i have paid as little as a hundred to clean a painting ...... and as much as four hundred to clean others ......
. it is easy to see the soil .... smoke ..... whatever ..... just look at the border and see that this had a mat / border on it for decades ...... but i am certain that the frame is much newer ....... not on the back how the dark wood that actually has the cloth attached is quite old and the light colored wood is much newer ...... who would do such a thing? ...... lol ...... i assure you that it was not me
if i were to guess ..... i would say it is at least 1880 period ...... but it may be much older and date to before the Civil War ...... it is neither signed or dated ......
my oil painting measures ...... 47 inches high ...... 26 1/2 inches across ...... the new frame measures .... 1 inch thick on the end
. my brother thinks it can be shipped by him ...... almost too big though ....... i will let the pictures tell the rest of the story ...... an interesting bit of fantasy here , quite old , and offered at a reasonable price ......... hope you like my naked fairy girl
.
