Lovely photographic reproduction of a painting, from an antique British Periodical. A vintage print not a modern reproduction.

A wonderful image of a knight in chain armour kneeling at the feet of a beautiful half-naked Venus, wrapped in a luscious decorated robe - "In The Venusberg" by Victorian painter, the Hon. John Collier (1850–1934). Collier painted in the Pre-Raphaelite style, and was one of the most prominent portrait painters of his generation.
Venusberg is the name of a mythical mountain in German poetry. Caverns in the mountain housed the court of Venus, goddess of love. Venusberg was hidden from mortal men, but the knight Tannhäuser spent a year there worshiping Venus and returned there after believing that he had been denied forgiveness for his sins (Wikipedia).Exhibited for the Royal Academy in 1901.

Very Good - Slight Marking
There is some slight marking caused by fingering of the print and very slight age spotting which is only visible if held to the light This is hardly noticeable and does not detract from the beauty of the print.

A Note on condition:
Minor imperfections are to be expected from antique prints due to their age and in many cases this does not affect the appearance of the print. Any blemishes that are noteworthy are described and shown in the picture where possible.
Colours will vary slightly depending on your monitor
Also Please Note: The watermark in the bottom right hand corner of the image does not appear on the print itself.
