Queen Victoria Hand Colored Lithograph by Nathaniel Currier, Estate Decor

I was immediately smitten with this vintage hand colored Lithograph of Queen Victoria (1819-1901) by Nathaniel Currier (1813-1888).  I love the bits of French blue and gold in the lithograph that were then carried I to the double matting and professional framing. 

As I've said before, glass is my kryptonite so I apologize for the glare. I'm showing it in high and low light.

‘Nathaniel Currier was an apprentice to William S. and John Pendleton at America's first lithographic company when he was fifteen years old. In 1834 he created his own printing company, Currier and Ives. James Merritt Ives was originally hired as a bookkeeper, but was made a full partner in 1857.

At one time the firm was one of the most popular producers of lithographs depicting current events. Currier and Ives remained in business until 1907 through the management of the partners' sons.’

I acquired it through an estate auction of an avid art collector... She had one of the most extensive collections I’ve ever seen. When we picked up our lot of 18 pieces, I was amazed that there was so much more that will be offered in a second auction. I'm on pins and needles!

Pieces like this are why I love sourcing the South and the great state of Texas for vintage and antique estate decor. You never know what you'll find...shopping estate sales, auctions, and charity thrift stores to carefully curate a collection of fantastic finds that have and will stand the test of time.

It measures 16.5” tall x 13” wide and is in lovely estate condition.
