Description: Opulent antique hand-painted photograph by James Arthur, dated 1900. A lush, romantic Art Nouveau depiction of a beautiful woman crossing a lake by boat evoking Celtic and Viking mythologies. Clear, crisp details, and bright colors add to the haunting romance. Photograph, frame, matt and glass are all antique original, not reprints or recreations. Signed "Copyright 1900 by James Arthur". This is a large picture. The richly decorated gold frame measures approximately 25 ½ x 21 ½ x 1 ¼"; under the 19 ½ x 15 ½" matt, the photograph measures 16 x 13". An exceptional survivor now well over a century old, this photogravure print is in excellent condition, with minimal fading or yellowing. Original frame does have some minor damage to the corners and ornaments; however, as you can clearly see, this picture looks and presents absolutely gorgeously. (NB: The white flares near the bottom righthand corner are sunlight on the framed glass.) Perfect for any Victorian or Edwardian, Art Nouveau or Arts and Crafts, Tiffany era decor! Free shipping
