Antique print - Beautiful Wishing Well by G D Leslie, RA 1901

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

A beautiful image a young woman making a wish at the "Wishing Well" by Victorian painter, G(eorge) D(unlop) Leslie, RA (1835-1921). Leslie's early works, showed the strong influence of the Pre-Raphaelites, but he settled into a more academic, aesthetic, style of painting with the aim of showing "pictures from the sunny side of English domestic life". He often used children as subjects and his work was praised by John Ruskin for its portrayal of the "sweet quality of English girlhood". One of his pictures, "This is the Way we Wash our Clothes" was used as a poster in an advertising campaign for soap. Leslie's work was highly regarded by critics of the time. (Wikipedia)
The well sits in a woodland landscape with an elaborate floral motif on the head stones. Exhibited for the Royal Academy in 1901.

Very Good - Slight Marking
There is some slight marking caused by fingering of the print, and some 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.
