Vintage from the Late 19th century

Handpicked by Isabelle

Dimensions: 13x9 cm (5.1x3.5 in)
This exquisite Late 19th Century chromolithograph showcases a tender classical scene, depicting a woman and child interacting with a traditional 'pantin,' or puppet. This antique print captures an idyllic moment from a bygone era, perfect for collectors of Victorian art and vintage decorative pieces.

The vibrant illustration features a gracefully depicted woman, adorned in a flowing blue-green classical dress with gold trim and a red headband, embodying timeless elegance. She is holding a small, articulated wooden puppet, delicately manipulating its strings. Beside her, a young child, dressed in a simple, light-colored tunic, eagerly reaches up towards the dancing puppet, their gaze fixed with innocent wonder.

The scene unfolds within what appears to be a classical portico or open veranda, marked by a sturdy column on the left. Beyond, lush green trees and foliage suggest an outdoor, natural setting, while the geometrically tiled floor adds to the architectural detail. The artwork is framed by a subtle golden border, enhancing its decorative appeal and evoking a sense of preciousness.

This charming piece, titled 'Le Pantin' (The Puppet), beautifully reflects the late 19th-century fascination with classical themes and idyllic domesticity. It offers a glimpse into historical depictions of childhood and play, presented through the rich, detailed artistry characteristic of chromolithography. This print would make a captivating addition to any collection of period art or a unique statement piece for home décor.
