This is a lovely seascape entitled The Longships Lights Cornwall and signed on the right Harry Colls. It is either a print or watercolor ? I am not quite sure. It is most likely a print. But I purchased this piece for the frame. The frame is elegant and elaborate and deserves quite the painting. It is hard to find a 19th century frame like this in good condition. I was absolutely knocked out by it ? I love the brilliance of the gold and the multitude of patterns. The architectural moldings are deep. The exterior and interior are almost in a lemon yellow gold. You have a combination of high and low burnishing on this frame. It is a very deep frame almost boxing in the masterpiece painting that belongs within its embrace. Some of the patterns are a deeply carved shell surround by leaves and there are a million of them. I could go on and on regarding the extravagance of this frame. It dates from probably the 1870?s ? 1880?s and it is in a remarkable state of preservation. Overall the frame is 30 3/8?w x 27 7/8?h x 3 1/8? deep. The sight size is 24 1/8? x 18 5/8?.

Striving For Excellence
It isn?t brilliance or just getting the breaks,
It is consistent attention to & honest respect for the Customer.
