A beautiful elaborate fleur de lis scrollwork decorative border surrounds the image, with tiny leaf and flower vignettes. The celtic like ornamental perimeter scrollwork surrounding the portrait is a beautiful work of art, typical of a John Tallis type production. A great historical portrait print for a genealogy buff looking for family heritage or royalty type prints.

Portrait Image and scrollwork area is clean, clear and sharp with beautiful detail and in Very Good Condition. Blank on Reverse side and printed heavier paper.
