ANOTHER GREAT
A framed miniature painting, executed in oil on board or canvas, depicting an adult duck with two ducklings nestled in tall grass. The work is signed ‘M. Hart’ in the lower right corner. It is presented within a highly ornate, gilded frame, likely gesso over wood, featuring Rococo-inspired foliate and shell motifs, consistent with a late 19th or early 20th-century style. The reverse features an aged paper label from ‘CARVERS & GILDERS,’ ‘Picture Makers,’ ‘& Restorers,’ ‘ENGLAND,’ also noting ‘BEVELLED GLASS OLD FRAMES REGILDED.’
