About MeEmbroidered silk framed picture in an oval cream silk ground embroidered in green blue and gold silks with a male and female figure with painted faces, chained together against a painted sky.

The frame is gilt painted wood with the glass painted black to form an oval reserve with gilt motifs in each corner.
