Amerita Jacksonii
oil on birch panel
5"x3"
antique oval frame with burnished gold leaf
 
The smallest of the series so far, this little gem was found on the grounds of Lily Bay Creek Homestead.
 
All frames for the Door County Miniature series are real wood, vintage, pre-owned, and may have scuffs, chips or other imperfections but that only adds to the beauty of these stunning frame patterns. They come from a collection of frames I brought from Italy and many were discarded from artworks that were being reframed for the Vatican.  If you are aiming for perfection, these frames are not for you.
