For your consideration is a gorgeous antique Victorian era photo of a young boy who is holding a prayer book. He is seated and surrounded by an array of artistic floral arrangements and period Victorian furnishings. He may be about 8-10 years old and is well dressed most likely from a family of stature. There are 3 floral arrangements in vases surrounding the subject. One arrangement on a table has peonies, the other on another table has peonies and giants mums with a lit candle in front and one arrangement is on the floor and has light colored roses.The boy is wearing dress attire; a suit with short pants and a white shirt,stockings with lace up shoes.He has on a tie and handkerchief and a boutonniere.The boy is seating on a beautiful scrolled Victorian brocade fabric chair with one leg perched on a small stool. It looks like a studio photo set up. It is quite stuning!This could possibly be a Communion photo.Excuse the reflections. It was extremely difficult to get a completely obscured photo of the portrait without reflections from other objects.
As if the photo isn\'t rare enough; it is also framed in a heavy, deep profile oak and wood frame, in the Arts & Craft or Mission style. The frame looks to be original to the photo. The photo and glass is sealed with boards and nailed closed in the back so I can\'t tell how it was placed in the frame. It appears to be professional workmanship. It is quite heavy. possibly 10 lbs. The frame is in original condition. It does not appear to have been re stained or altered. It is in sturdy, complete condition and ready to hang once again. It has a deep patina.The photo itself has some issues. There are cracks or water marks around the outside edges and the is a small amount of yellowing near the top left hand corner. The center is very nice. There is no noted damage where the subject is posed, with the exception of possibly some age related lighting of the entire photo itself.. Details can be seen with no problems.
The frame measures:Length- 24 3/4\"Width-20 3/4\"Depth- 2 3/4\"
The visible portion of the photo measures approximatelyLength- 19 1/4\"Width- 15 1/4\"
