She is absolutely gorgeous and the details of the little girl's face are exquisite. She looks like an angel. Pastel on paper. Signed lower right A. Lubit. Sight measures 16 1/2" in diameter and is displayed in a gilt wood and gesso frame measuring 26 1/4" square. Both portrait and frame are under glass. So sweet...

Condition: The gold part of the frame surrounding the portrait shows some cracks, which I believe you can see in the 5th photo. There are some shreds at the bottom of the piece, inside the glass (please see 6th photo). Not sure what they are from. The backing shows significant wear and there appears to be some paper stuffing between the portrant and backing, so it may have come from there. Some wear to outer frame commensurate with age. This piece is otherwise in very good condition.
