lefler 3 cherub children
Can anyone shine a light on my query, I have 2 large lithographs in sepia of the cherub faced children,the girl is holding a fan sitting at a table on a cane woven chair with two boys dressed in regency style clothes hair tied back like judges wigs playing chess,I also have the same children in another picture in casual dress of that period in its original frame ,very ornate gold painted mainly grapes on a vine pattern.These prints along with a third print now discarded through damp,were found at an old house originally a monks abbey and converted owned by a famous photographer in the 60s,it was an auction type sale of all the contents of the house which was being sold. This abbey was in Ashurst wood sussex. Has anyone else got these pictures,one is signed exactly the same as the Putti cherubs by Franz Lefler. thanks,take care ,Jo Noyce
