A very pleasing 19th century gilt frame in excellent order with the original gilding and gesso moulded detail. The frame has an attractive form with raised frieze surrounding a deep inner slip with craquelere effect inside the mount.
The outer detail is also decorative with a nice rubbed back ochre colour and swirling scroll gesso mouldings.
A nice original example with good antique colour and character.
