For sale is an absolutely charming antique 19th century Victorian oil painting of a beautiful young woman holding 2 little puppies. The painting is signed ""EK" on the left side, and is housed in what I think is a tortoiseshell frame with inlaid circles in each corner. The painting has a gold metal inner liner, its original metal loop hanger, and the back is covered with red wool felt. I believe the glass is original, although I'm not completely sure. The painting measures about 4 1/2" tall, 3 3/4" wide, and 1/2" thick. The painting is in very nice condition, with no noticeable flaws, however, the frame does have overall crazing and age cracks on 3 sides, but at least in my opinion, they don't detract from the piece at all. Please look carefully at the pictures as they are an important part of the description, and be sure to ask any questions. What a terrific addition to your collection of antique portraits, perfect in a Victorian style decor!
