This charming small-scale decorative piece features an antique hand-carved wood frame, finished in aged gilt with beautifully irregular, organic Rococo-style openings. The carving has a wonderfully time-worn surface, displaying old gilding, natural patina, and scattered losses that add to its authentic antique character.
The center holds a printed photographic portrait (not a painting), likely added later. The true value and artistry of the piece lie in the early carved wood frame, which shows the craftsmanship of 19th-century European decorative work.
