Painting of great size and strong impact adorned with coeval wood and plaster frame, finely carved and gilded (see photo).

Work signed and dated lower right L. Raymond 1882 (see photo) referable to Turin painter Lodovico Raymond (1825-1898), lacking authentication. Painting that has undergone conservation restoration with a small patch placed on the back (see photo). In good condition with some minor signs of time. Light painting H 83 x W 137 cm.
