Exquisite antique painting on porcelain plaque depicting Cupid and Psyche ascending to the heavens. This is painted after the original by William Adolph Bouguereau, Psyche In Love, that was exhibited at the Paris Salon in 1898. The back is inscribed with a blue glaze Psyche Amor, after W. Bouguereau. It also has Paris Salon 1898 in a blue glaze on the back. This beautiful porcelain plaque has its original gilt wood frame. The porcelain is in superb mint condition with no scratches or defects. The porcelain plaque measures 8 inches high by 6 inches wide. Framed size 14 inches high by 12 inches wide. The original painting by Bouguereau would cost millions if it appeared on the auction block today. This is your opportunity to own a superb hand painted 19th century painting on porcelain plaque, a reduction in size of the original that was exhibited in 1898 at the Paris Salon. Guaranteed to please the most particular collector or connoisseur. (Item #72507)
