At more than 125 years old, this large color illustration is nothing short of gorgeous.  Matted and framed it would be fantastic addition to any wall.

The color illustration itself is approximately 8" x 11", tipped in (top & bottom hinged) to heavyweight backing page of 10.5" x 14".  T

Original color "typogravure" book-plate over 125 years old — NOT modern reproduction!

Special note: The colors and detail in this print are just fantastic. The photo does not pay due to the richness in the colors.
