I think this is quite wonderful, and unusual, and hope someone out there shares my appreciation of its specialness! It is a first quarter 20th century needlepoint/tapestry on linen, one of a kind I feel sure (not done according any pattern), picturing a ginger haired woman in fabulous green robe and hat (and bright red lipstick) sitting at her easel, hand raised before her canvas. Terrific pattern everywhere, from the curtains behind her to the side of her throne-like chair to the several overlapping rugs at her feet. I always love a portrait of an artist at an easel, which I can't look at without thinking of Las Meninas, and even more so when the artist is a woman and better still rendered in needlepoint--one medium speaking about another! And here, in a distinctive period frame-- the needlework under glass in an inset frame, surrounded by linen mat, and then with wonderful hand-carved exterior perimeter frame.  Hard to photograph and mine do no justice, but very much the sort of thing that one loves more and more the more time one spends with it. 

Overall: 22 1/4" x 16 3/8". Frame within the frame: 14 3/4" x 10 1/8". Sight: 13 7/8" x 9". Original frame, looks to me like silk on linen needlepoint/tapestry. Good condition, under glass, with just a couple of lost stitches on one top window pane. A bit of wear to the surface of the interior frame left edge. I have not opened it from the back.
