Richard Franklin 'Beauty And The Beast' Print
Description
A print by Richard Franklin titled ‘Beauty And The Beast’. This rectangular framed artwork depicts a female bust in classical style with flowers in her hair, facing a lion’s head with an open mouth. The figures are rendered in a muted palette of off-white, blue, and brown tones, set against a textured background featuring a grid-like pattern and faint, decorative script, including visible Hebrew characters (e.g., ‘לללל’) and Latin-like script. A visible signature is present in the lower-left quadrant of the artwork, appearing to begin with ‘G. An…’. The artwork is housed in an ornate gilded wood frame with a dark reddish-brown inner band and a gold fillet.
