    I got this along with the other mourning picture I posted at an estate sale. This is more in a Tramp Art style as it is put together by misc. pieces. It is probably from that era, but it holds a special place as someone's child. Having lost a daughter I feel a special attachment to this piece and am proud to have gotten it.

      Touching piece. The image itself dates from the 1890s.

      Thank you Scottvez for the date info, I just wasn't sure.
