Vintage Art Nouveau Style Portrait Print of a Flapper Lady

This item is a framed vertical print featuring a full-length portrait of a young woman dressed in early 20th-century 'flapper' or Edwardian-era fashion. The subject is depicted with dark wavy hair adorned with an ornamental headband and feather, wearing a shimmering golden-yellow wrap over a long, dark brownish-purple draped skirt. She holds a bouquet of red roses and a closed hand-fan. The artwork style is reminiscent of early calendar art or 'yard long' prints popular in the 1910s and 1920s. The image is housed in an ornate, gold-toned (likely gesso or wood with metallic finish) frame featuring floral scrollwork and beaded borders. It is protected by glass and includes a decorative inner mat with line-work borders. The print appears to have an artist's signature or brand mark in the lower-left corner, which is common for commercial illustrators of that period. Physically, the item is tall and narrow with a rectangular orientation. The condition appears to be excellent, with the frame protected by white cardboard corner guards, suggesting it has been well-preserved or recently rehoused. The colors remain vibrant without visible fading, and the frame shows no significant chips or cracks. This piece reflects the romanticized illustrative style of the Art Nouveau to Art Deco transition period, characterized by soft palettes and elegant feminine subjects.
