Aramis Antiques has dated this piece to the 1750s.
It depicts a charming pastoral scene with young women engaged in the early morning task of milking, with children playing with the buckets. The frames are black lacquered and gilt, and the image sits behind gilt painted glass known as verre eglomise. The back has not been opened so it’s not possible to check if the usual attributions are inscribed on the edge of the engraving. In lovely original condition.
