Boy in Hat with Dogs Victorian Era Painting on Wood Panel Californian decor where at the very edge

where at the very edge of the lip the wicker seems to have lost its very end

Really a terrific object that would be great on the desk sitting atop incoming or outgoing mail

I'm always on the lookout for Burmese Yun-de lacquer

or to fill with a couple of little treasures and give as a gift basket

A terrific gift for a lover of mid-century Scandinavian ceramics

Boy in Hat with Dogs Victorian Era Painting on Wood Panel Californian decor where at the very edgeI'm not sure that I could love this old painting more; what could be better than this wide eyed, long lashed boy in hat plus not one but three adorable puppies!!! All the better is that it be painted (in oil) on an old chamfered wood panel, with various dings and scrapes and wear that just add to its charms. Victorian era American, and I believe based on a popular advertising image of the time, though I think it has a bit of a Mexican ratablo feel
