Excellent example of a very decorative brass clad Victorian frame with a photograph of what I believe to be of a young woman holding her deceased infant known as a "mourning portrait" very common in the late 19th century. The overall size of the frame is 26" tall by 23" wide and 1.75" deep. The interior for the photograph is 18.75" tall by 15.5" wide. The brass cladding is over wood. The photograph appears to have some foxing behind the glass. The overall condition is excellent considering its age. Minor tear in the brass cladding on the bottom center of the frame. I have added some brass nails to secure the cladding to the frame and is ready to hang.
