C. 1840s Very Unusual Cactus Theorem Watercolor in Period Frame desk accessories I don't have his original

I don't have his original box to date him exactly

best enjoyed and appreciated in person and over time

which I've just fallen in love with

but there are plenty left to do the job of sweeping off the work table

I'd be very inclined to carefully remove and frame a handful of pages

C. 1840s Very Unusual Cactus Theorem Watercolor in Period Frame desk accessories I don't have his originalI'm fairly obsessed with this one first for how unusual it is to find a 19th c. theorem painting of a cactus, and especially for the marvelous treatment of the cactus itself, in this very Arts and Crafts feeling palette and with an almost Cubist feeling to the faceting of that dusty rose color, product of the use of stencils. And with the gradated application of the watercolor lending this wonderful softness to the whole thing. Glorious. Framed: 5 3 8
