If you watch the eyes closely, they will suddenly open!This picture is also known as Veronica's Handkerchief and is a copy of the celebrated painting by Gabriel Max, an Austrian who was born in 1874. The original painting is valued at 25, 000.00 and is in a private collection in Prague. His best known work in Austria is " The Last Token" in the Metro Museum of Art, New York.The painting mea...sures about 8.5" x 11.5" and the frame measures 10" x 13.5". The bottom corner reads A - 33 C The House of Art and the bottom middle reads Jesus Christus ( faint writing)The gold frame appears to be old and it has some stains around the edges of the frame. Unfortunately, the brown paper backing is missing. There are some specks of paint missing and some scratches on the print. Please look at all twelve photos for you to view to judge the condition and make a decision before you bid!I read that it took 14 different colors to get the effect of Jesus' eyes and it is very interesting to watch the opening and closing of his eyes.I am not an expert on this but I have described this to the best of my ability. My mother had purchased this from an estate many years ago. This will make a very interesting conversation piece when displayed on your wall and even more of living in these times today!I am offering at a reasonable starting bid!
All questions are welcome and thanks for taking the time to look!
