Finely detailed New England watercolor theorem on velvet, circa 1830, depicting a diagonally woven basket overflowing with fruit. The subtle shading of the fruit and delicate hand-painted details are the work of an experienced artist. The original gilt frame with a twisted rope detail measures 14” x 14”. The theorem was recently conserved, with an added linen backing.
