No. 2643 Lover's Eye Painting in an Aged Dark Silver Frame

Sale price$295.00

A Lover's Eye oil painting in an aged dark silver composite frame with an optional stand back and hardware for hanging, and with the window measuring 6.5" by 4.75" and the frame measuring 8.75" by 6.75".

THE HISTORY: Lover's Eyes were a jewelry trend c.1785-1830 of brooches set with tiny watercolor portraits on ivory. Since they were cropped to eyes, they were in many ways more direct and intimate than traditional miniature portraits; but also because they were just eyes, they were often used as daring public testimonies of clandestine love affairs with mystery lovers. 
THE FRAMES: Not only does each painting arrive framed and ready-to-hang, but it has been painting especially to complement the size, color, and style of its vintage or antique frame.
