Lithograph by A. Pingot based on Guido Reni representing the Holy heart of Mary. Those prints are highly collectible.
Part of the series " Nouvelles études variés".. This is N° 161 and was made in Paris, rue St André des Arts (the address was embossed in one corner. Only a small part is now visible). It is from the late 19th Century.
This is a beautiful lithograph but was damaged - look carefully at the pictures- It has some little holes, tears, light stains and was badly cut by a previous owner (see the photograph of the text 'Saint Coeur de Marie'). All part of the charm and ready to be framed in a new home!
Size: about 62 x 52 cm / 24.4 x 20.4" (it wasn't cut perfectly straight)
Thanks for visiting Cabinet de Merveilles!
