Our Lady of the Rosary Framed Print (Scalloped Frame)
This item is a religious print depicting Our Lady of the Rosary, framed in a distinctive scalloped and possibly metal or composite material, likely dating from the mid-20th century. The print itself is an oval image, possibly a lithograph or chromolithograph under glass, showing the Virgin Mary seated with the Child Jesus on her lap. Both are crowned and surrounded by what appear to be symbolic stars or lights. The Virgin Mary wears a red dress and a blue cloak, while the Child Jesus is clad in a white garment. They are holding rosaries. To their left, a male saint, possibly St. Dominic, is kneeling and receiving a rosary. To their right, a female saint or nun, possibly St. Catherine of Siena, is also kneeling and receiving a rosary. The background features architectural elements like arches and what appears to be a landscape with water and mountains through windows, suggesting perhaps a coastal setting or a prominent peak. The words 'AVE MARIA' are visible at the bottom center of the print. The frame is a prominent feature, irregularly shaped with scalloped edges, giving it a somewhat octagonal or elongated floral appearance. It has a light blue or silver-gray finish with a textured, almost hammered or crinkled foil-like pattern, and an inner gold-toned accent trim. The overall condition shows visible wear, particularly on the top edge of the frame where the finish is chipped and worn, exposing what might be the underlying material. There are minor scuffs and scratches on the frame surface, consistent with age and handling. The print itself appears to be in relatively good condition, though assessing potential fading or foxing is difficult without removing it from the frame. The color palette is rich yet soft, characteristic of religious prints from that era. The craftsmanship of the frame, specifically its unique shape and textured finish, suggests a mass-produced but decorative item popular in Catholic households.
