'How Do I Love Thee?' (Sonnet 43) by Elizabeth Barrett Browning, 1806-1861
The inspiration for this artwork is the quiet retreat of an old arbour with Damask roses scrambling all over it. It's drawn with a fine dip pen in grey ink, watercolours and crayons.
The quote is drawn with the same fine dip pen in grey ink.
The artwork is placed in an antique 19th century wooden frame. The frame has a gilded edge which has a slight texture. The rest of the frame is covered in paper which has a floral decoration. The frame has dings and dents with some tearing to the paper which is commensurate with its age. Please have a careful look at the pictures.
This is an original piece of art in an antique frame.
