Item #: 07136
This 1870 Hand Color Engraving shows the notation Provincie Vriesland, indicating that the engraving was likely created in the province of Friesland, Netherlands. The subject is a lovely Frisian woman dressed in lace and blue satin, and it suggests that she has just come in from the garden, her bonnet tossed carelessly on the chair beside her, perhaps to arrange a bouquet of flowers. During this era, color was added to illustrations by hand. It was an expensive undertaking and required a skilled artist to produce a work of such delicate shades as this piece displays. Measurements: 18-1/2 wide by 22-1/2 high.
