Framed antique chromolithograph, lady and horse

Antiques : Framed Artwork

 

As my regular clients know, I am enchanted with images of ladies and their horses, our home is full of them. I can't resist these images when I see them, and sadly, I can't keep them all. This is a beautiful framed chromolithograph, dating to c. 1900, showing a young woman reaching up to pick an apple from a tree. Perhaps she is going to offer it to her horse, who stands along side her. He is bridled, she is dressed in her long riding coat, with the velvet collar and cuffs, they've interrupted their ride for a moment. A lovely portrait, in a very nice old wood frame, it measures 13" by 10", with an old cardboard backing, and what I believe to be the original glass. The frame has wear, there is a scarcely noticeable crease across the middle of the picture, I couldn't even photograph it for you, it is so hard to see. An elegant equestrienne, from long ago, as beautiful today as she was back then.
