Description :

Decorative framed artwork reproduced after The Story Book, a celebrated 19th-century painting by French academic master William-Adolphe Bouguereau (1825–1905). The original work, painted circa 1877, depicts a young girl with softly curled hair holding a book—an enduring image admired for its realism and quiet sentiment.

This example is a decorative reproduction, produced in an oil-on-canvas style. The surface exhibits applied texture and crackle effects intended to emulate the appearance of an original oil painting. The piece is presented in an ornate gilt frame with raised floral and foliate detailing, typical of traditional European-style art reproductions.

A classic and visually striking wall piece, ideal for a library, study, or traditional interior.
