Oranges would have been considered an exotic fruit and very rare and expensive - only for the very wealthy).

Size of canvas: 20 x 23.5 inches;

Size of front oval portrait aperture: 23 x 18.5 inches.

Weight: 2.7 kg (allow 9 kg volumetric weight once packed).

Reasonable condition for its age - some craquelure but all part of its charm and character.

Priced accordingly.

A little note about shipping:

This beautiful piece is very old, and its gesso plaster frame is naturally rather delicate. We will pack it with the utmost care to help it reach you safely. That said, it’s possible that fragments of plaster may loosen in transit — this is quite normal for antique frames of this kind. By purchasing, you’re accepting this small risk when shipping by courier. Unfortunately, I’m not able to offer refunds or returns for losses of gesso that may occur in delivery.
