Item # 7020 - Matted & Backed Greyhound Print 1920 Spain



Here is a professionally matted and BACKED colored engraved print from 1920.

It was purchased in Antwerp, Belgium...but originated in Spain.

On the back is the following information:

"EN EL PALACIO DE LOS DUQES; UNA GRACIA DEL BUFON, POR A. DIAZ HUERTAS".

It is a scene from a a Spanish Duke's palace. A harlequin is entertaining.

Standing at the bottom of a graceful winding staircase is an exquisite white Greyhound.

The detail work is extraordinarily beautiful!

The matting is expensive and gorgeous...a pure creamy white. It sets off the colored print beautifully.

The back is sturdy and strong. It is acid resistant.

Measurements are: 9.5" x 11.5". This entire portrait is in excellent condition.

There is virtually no damage. With proper care...it will survive for another two centuries at least!
