C. 1840s Very Unusual Cactus Theorem Watercolor in Period Frame pot holder hook meaning that one must turn

meaning that one must turn each block back and forth 90 degrees to get it over the post and onto the base

A great everyday smallish serving bowl

which I think gives it a bit of the feel of a unicorn

A perfect one for hanging amid a salon style wall of still life paintings

which has a subtle blue undertone to it that feels exactly right

C. 1840s Very Unusual Cactus Theorem Watercolor in Period Frame pot holder hook meaning that one must turnI'm fairly obsessed with this one first for how unusual it is to find a 19th c. theorem painting of a cactus, and especially for the marvelous treatment of the cactus itself, in this very Arts and Crafts feeling palette and with an almost Cubist feeling to the faceting of that dusty rose color, product of the use of stencils. And with the gradated application of the watercolor lending this wonderful softness to the whole thing. Glorious. Framed: 5 3 8
