St. Cecilia Antique Lithograph Black Lacquer Frame 30 x 23.5
DESCRIPTION OF THE ITEM. This is a large, striking framed devotional print of Saint Cecilia, the patron saint of music and musicians. The image is a detailed, high-contrast photogravure or engraving-style print in black and white tones, strongly characteristic of late 19th-century or Victorian-era religious artwork. Subject: The artwork depicts St. Cecilia seated at a keyboard/organ. She is wearing simple, traditional robes, a halo, and a cross necklace, and has a beatific expression looking heavenward. Above her, two cherubic angels are showering her with roses and other flowers. The scene combines traditional religious iconography with the highly sentimental style favored during the late Victorian period. Aesthetic: The high contrast and deep shading give the print a rich, almost charcoal-like appearance. The print is framed with a wide, neutral-toned mat board, which creates a strong contrast with the image. The framed print is in good vintage condition, suitable for immediate display, but with wear consistent with its age. Print Quality: The print is clear and detailed, showing the fine shading and texture of the original work (likely a copy after a famous 19th-century painting or engraving). The paper has a natural, warm age-toning. Frame: The print is housed in a substantial, deep black wooden frame with a glossy, lacquer-like finish. The frame shows some minor chips, scuffs, and edge wear, but is structurally sound and presents the artwork dramatically. Dimensions: The full framed piece measures approximately 30 x 23.5 inches (outer dimensions). Subject: Saint Cecilia, Patroness of Music, accompanied by rose-bearing Angels. Medium: Large-Format Print (likely Photogravure or high-quality photomechanical reproduction in the style of a late 19th-century engraving). Aesthetic: High-contrast, sentimental religious art typical of the Victorian and Edwardian eras. Frame: Large, deep black wooden frame with a lacquer finish. Size: Approximately 30″ x 23.5″ framed.
