(French Peasant, Environs of Lyon, Crossing Stream, Canine Companion, Lovely Bonnet, Gold Necklace, Pink Floral Pattern)

Issued c.1865-75, Paris by Pacquet freres

Lovely old vintage antique print with beautiful detailed original hand color.

Printed in the 19th century on paper which is gently age toned but which remains sound, clean & well preserved.

A scarce and beautiful ethnic costume image worthy of display.

In Good+ to near VG or better condition; normal uniform minor age toning to sheet as typical, and small minor age spotting, which should be clearly visible in the scan. Overall the printed image is clean, well preserved and very attractive.

A picture is worth a thousand words. The zoomable image is a major part of the item description. Please examine closely, as what you see is what we will send you. [note: we grade very conservatively and always seek to disclose any noteworthy flaws ].

A relatively little-known and fascinating old/ vintage/ antique printed ethnic fashion image which any collector, dealer, institution or person of artistic taste would be happy to own and display.
