    I fell in love with this cool print when I saw it last week at my friend's shop, I went back today & bought it. It's marked as seen on the top "The Gentlewoman" Christmas supplement 1898. Perhaps from an old magazine. The frame has a card taped to it from Alex Fraser Galleries Vancouver B.C.

      I too find this absolutely delightful. Thank you for sharing it. It reminds me for some reason of a fine piece of Limoges pate sur pate I had years ago. I could see this done as fine enamelling on glass too, it just has that kind of detail and delicacy, to me.

      Thanks, Lisa & everyone else for the loves. You're right, Lisa it does have that look to it. I even like the wear around the edges to me it just adds to the vintage look of the piece.

      I did a quick search, and I saw a couple of these out there printed on silk. ((Here is a link to one: https://www.etsy.com/listing/84153710/reserved-for-frenchychic-the-gentlewoman). From the edges of yours, it looks like it could be silk also. Very cool! I love this style of picture, it reminds me of Maxfield Parrish in some ways.

      This is lovely :) I was fortunate enough to find a large Maxfield Parrish print a couple weeks ago.
