Framed Vintage Portrait Print of 'Miss Bowles' by Sir Joshua Reynolds

This item is a framed vintage print reproduction of the famous 1775 portrait 'Jane, Daughter of Oldfield Bowles' (commonly known as 'Miss Bowles') originally painted by Sir Joshua Reynolds. The artwork depicts a young girl with dark hair and a wide-brimmed hat, wearing a white dress with a pink sash, standing in a soft, wooded landscape. The print appears to be a mass-produced lithograph or textured print from the mid-20th century, designed to simulate an oil painting. It is housed in an aged wooden frame with a gold-tone or gilded finish that shows significant character wear. The frame exhibits noticeable scuffing, loss of finish, and darkening consistent with age. The print surface shows signs of environmental aging, including a slight yellowing or darkening of the varnish/paper and a small vertical scratch or abrasion near the top left corner of the girl's hat. The color palette is dominated by earthy tones, muted greens, and warmth in the flesh tones and dress. There are no visible artist signatures or manufacturer stamps on the front, which is common for decorative reproductions of this period and style. The overall craftsmanship suggests a mid-tier decorative home accessory rather than a fine arts collector's piece.
