A truly romantic antique oil painting on canvas of a lush rose bouquet in warm pinks, creams, and yellows against a deep burgundy ground. The signature in the lower left appears to read R. La Galle or similar. Beautiful aged canvas with fine craquelure throughout, totally consistent with a piece that’s well over a century old. The original gilded gold frame with beaded inner liner shows lovely wear at the corners. Late 1800s to early 1900s, in the classic Victorian/Edwardian parlor painting tradition. The moody dark florals trend is exactly this energy, and the real antique versions are getting harder and harder to find. Dimensions: 20.75” x 15.75”
