This one has especially good character, with the soft aged paper, hand-drawn border, dark profile, and worn black frame all working together beautifully.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe frame has visible handling wear, with warm undertones showing through the painted black surface. It is difficult to tell whether the underlayer is earlier gilding or simply the wood and older finish showing through, but the wear gives the frame a beautiful lived-in quality and makes the piece feel authentic and storied.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDetails:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003e• Medium:\u003c\/em\u003e Silhouette portrait with hand-cut mat and pen-and-ink border detail\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e•\u003cem\u003e Size: \u003c\/em\u003e8.75” tall x 6.75” wide\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003e• Frame: \u003c\/em\u003ePainted black frame with handling wear and warm undertones showing through\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003e• Hanging: \u003c\/em\u003ePaper-backed and ready to hang\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003e• Estimated age:\u003c\/em\u003e Vintage, likely mid-20th century, possibly 1940s-1950s\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWonderful vintage condition with age and wear consistent with use.
