Purchased from an antique shop in a small town in western France. This is a very old and lovely fashion illustration from the time. It is said to be from around the late 1700s. It gives us a glimpse into what fashion was like back then. It is in a glass frame. There appears to have been something like leather around the edges, but it has completely peeled off. It is a color painting, and although there is fading, the colors remain. The back also gives a very aged impression, as shown in the photos. There is a hook attached so it can be hung on the wall, but please be aware that the surrounding leather has deteriorated. The original label remains, apparently from an old-established manufacturer in Bordeaux. Both the fashion illustration and the text have a wonderful antique feel that is immediately recognizable. It has become a very elegant and faded antique over a long period of time. By displaying this, the surrounding space will likely take on the atmosphere of old Paris. This frame may be particularly attractive to those who love old fashion sketches. The condition is as it was when purchased. There are peeling, dust, stains, and other imperfections around the frame, but it has an outstanding antique feel. It looks truly wonderful when displayed, with a very good feel of aging. The approximate size is: About 22x14 cm, a convenient size. It is over 200 years old, so there are stains, scratches, dust, peeling, etc. Please refrain from purchasing if you are overly concerned about these details.
