Perfectly Minimal Three Peaches in Basket 19th Century Theorem on Velvet in Period Frame red leather who proudly noted so on

who proudly noted so on the slide type box

I bought this one at a very good antiques show in Pennsylvania

and think it would make a fantastic gift for one's dearest and truest friend

but this is the first pull toy turtle I've come across and it's a pretty fun one

and lovely here pieced together with squares of old shirting fabric to form checkerboards

Perfectly Minimal Three Peaches in Basket 19th Century Theorem on Velvet in Period Frame red leather who proudly noted so onAbout as minimalist a theorem painting as one might find, which is much of why I love it, just a pyramid of three peaches in a black and brown basket. With just enough tonal variation on the peaches, from gold to orange peach, to given them form, and an excellent graphicness to the patterning on the basket. C. 1830s 40s I believe, on velvet, under glass in a roughly period gold gessoed wooden frame. 11 9 16" x 9 9 16" framed. All in good antique
