Vintage Paint by Number Harlequin Musician Ballet Framed 17x23” PBN mid century


For your consideration is the large and rare, wonderfully quirky vintage mid century paint by number of a harlequin musician & his ballerina muse. Fantasy scene in a forest among old ruins. Board is textured so parts of the painting are slightly raised and therefore have some dimension. 


The painting is 17”x23” in the frame and framed is approx. 20.5”x 27". Painting in overall good vintage condition but there are some issues. Board is warped so is not totally flat - is particularly raised where she is dancing. To her right, It’s dented inwards somewhat where it meets the frame (you can slightly see through to the back where the board separated from the frame when looking under the frame edge). Not particularly detracting when hung in my opinion since it’s such a cool piece in general the viewer likely won't focus on the flaws. I’m sure a collector out there will still appreciate it for what it is. They are a few surface stains as well which I did not try to remove and a couple minor scratches/scrapes. No tears. Frame has age wear/spots. 


I have not found another example of this PBN online. It will obviously need a large box to safely ship. Local pickup near Boston most welcome. Thank you!
