An atmospheric antique hand-coloured photogravure depicting the classical mythological scene of Hermes returning Persephone to Demeter. Beautifully faded with soft muted tones and a wonderfully timeworn quality, giving the piece a romantic, almost dreamlike feel.
Presented in its original dark stained frame with signs of age and wear consistent with time. The paper itself has a softly undulating, textured surface with areas of gentle rippling and age patina, adding to its character and antique charm.
A striking decorative piece for a layered traditional interior, library, hallway or bedroom.
