Sir Joshua Reynolds The Strawberry Girl Color Print - This is a color reproduction print titled The Strawberry Girl, based on the 1773 original oil painting by Sir Joshua Reynolds (British, 1723–1792). The work was published in 1929 by the Vivitone Corporation of Chicago. The print exhibits overall even toning consistent with age. The frame shows significant condition issues, including substantial losses to the gesso and gilded finish at the corners and the top decorative crest. Extensive cracking and peeling of the finish are present throughout the frame. The later cardboard backing and tape are in poor condition. The piece has not been examined out of the frame.
