Art Nouveau Curly-Haired Angel Child Engraving on Brass Motto Plaque

This is a lovely Art Nouveau engraving on a brass rectangular piece of metal, probably circa 1900. The graphic is of a chubby little angel with trees in the background. There is a motto or saying:

"My love to all those that I love. My love to all those that love me.

 My love to all those that love those that I love and to those that love those that love me".

It was mounted on the outside of the pictured black wooden frame but the nails have been removed or gotten lost.  The frame is being sold with the plaque.

It is in very good condition though it has some slight scratches and some small loss to the black paint filling the engraving.   I am sure it could be brightened with some type of cleaning, but I do not clean or repair things from my store unless I specifically state that I do.  I am not doing anything to this.

y store items are from auctions, garage sales and/or estate sales, generally pre-owned and sold as is. I rarely clean, repair or retouch anything I have in my store though I will always advise when I do so.  Descriptions are as accurate as I can make them, and measurements are approximate. Please refer to photos for further information.
