Antique Tinsel Picture Mr Yates as the Red Rover

19th century

Sold by Rams Head Antiques

Description

This is a really charming early Victorian tinsel picture in nice original condition dating from around 1840. The picture depicts the actor Mr Yates as The Red Rover. The hand coloured print is embellished with foil and metal enamels and cut out collage detail.

These antique tinsel pictures were popular in the early 19th century but are becoming increasingly hard to find now. This is a really good example and one of 18 of these we have recently acquired from a very good collection. This is a really good example with a great subject and is in a smart solid mahogany frame that suits it admirably.

The frame measures 32 cms by 27 cms.
