Large Antique Picture Frame with Picture (26x23"). Measures 26" by 23". Good condition. Beautiful frame but shows some scuffs. I do not know who the people are. The picture has some damage, see photos but can be replaced with your own.
Add a sense of history and grandeur to your space with this large antique picture frame. Measuring 26 inches by 23 inches, this substantial piece is crafted from a combination of wood and ornate gesso, featuring deep, multi-tiered molding with decorative scroll and geometric patterns typical of the late Victorian era. The frame's rich finish has developed a beautiful patina over time, though it does show some scuffs and wear consistent with its significant age.
Housed within the frame is an original, large-format sepia photograph of a multi-generational family in formal dress. While the identity of the subjects is unknown and the photograph itself shows some visible damage, it remains a captivating example of 19th-century portraiture. The frame is designed with a removable back, allowing you to easily replace the existing image with your own mirror, canvas, or personal family photography if desired. This piece is an exceptional choice for a traditional library, a maximalist living room display, or as a unique prop for historical set design.
This item is antique, over 100 years old. While it appears to be in good condition, there is the possibility I may have missed a minor detail. In the unlikely event I missed a major flaw I would reach out prior to sending it.
