Herbert Schmalz painted “The Temple of Eros” in 1883. This is a very early lithograph print which says it was produced “1st October 1884, Printed & Published by Boussod, Valadon & Co.” This art hung in the Old Frontier Relics Museum and was part of the Orville Mickens Estate. It appears to be in its original frame and measures 44’ X 30” including frame. Decent vintage condition for its age, but definitely not perfect. Please look closely at pics, there are chips, scratches, flaking, fading, etc.. Shipping: There will be a $15 handling / packaging fee for shipping this lot. The actual cost of postage will be added on top of that.
