Lot 370: Continental School, 20th Century 'Two Girls with Needlework'
An oval reproduction print under glass, depicting a sentimental genre scene in the late 19th-century academic style. The composition features two young girls in rustic dress; one is seated and engaged in needlework with red yarn, while the other leans towards her. The image surface shows a mechanical texture intended to simulate a canvas substrate. The work is presented in a broad, ornate oval gilt-finished frame decorated with multiple bands of moulded foliate and geometric motifs. No signature, date, or manufacturer’s marks are visible on the artwork or frame.
Condition report:
The frame shows minor age-related wear and small abrasions to the gilt finish, particularly along the outer edges and decorative relief. The glass and print appear to be in good overall condition, with no visible tears or significant fading to the image. Light surface dust and reflections are present on the glass.
