A Collection of Six Framed Artworks including Victorian Royal Commemorative Print and Textiles
Description
A collection of six framed artworks encompassing various mediums and styles. The collection includes four textile-based items and two framed prints. The most prominent textile is a large, vertically oriented religious needlepoint depicting figures in classical or biblical dress, set within a heavily gilded frame. Adjacent is a large cross-stitch textile illustrating a bustling harbor scene with ships and figures, presented in a stained wood frame with a pale blue mat. A third textile is a long, narrow embroidery featuring pink blossoms and swallows executed on a dark ground, set in a textured gold matting and frame. The fourth textile item is a colorful, horizontally oriented commemorative print or chromolithograph, identified through research as a Victorian Royal Commemorative Print, potentially related to the Queen’s Jubilee of 1897, featuring inset portraits of royal figures and allegorical scenes within an ornate border. The remaining items include a reproduction print of Egyptian figures and hieroglyphs on simulated papyrus, and a small classical scene painted or printed on a black ground, bearing faint white script including “Comber’ Amorosa Bianchi” and “Trezia Presiana.”
