John J. Gredler Works of Art
Group of Ten 19th Century Hand Colored Fruit Botanicals in Gilt Wood Frames
Group of 10 small framed still life depictions of fruit, to include: watercolor theorem depicting apples on a branch; hand-colored engraving with aquatint depicting applies on a branch; set of 2 prints, one depicting a peach, the other a nectarine; set of 6 miniature hand-colored stipple engravings depicting melons and berries. All in period gilt wood frames with original gilding. Circa 1840. My favorite new acquisition, I love these, they are so charming and evocative, each on its own, and particularly as a group. And the frames really make them sing.
Largest frame: 9-1/4" inches high x 6-5/8" w; smallest frame: 3" h x 2-5/8" w
Minor losses to surface gilding throughout. One small frame has losses of gilding to both corners, see photos. Some staining and foxing. Overall very good antique condition.
