Still Lift Painting of Fruit
This still life is a classic composition of a table scape with fruit. The background is done in a dark brown, the table looks to be marble and includes a variety of fruit. It measures 25" long x 19" wide, is on the original stretches, it is signed Hannah Barron Millbrook, Illinois. Having looked up Hannah on Ancestry, she was born in 1852 and died in 1939 I believe that she painted this around 1870-1890, it has minor paint loss, scuffs throughout and 2 small 1/4" punctures, and no restoration. Additional photos are available.
