PHOTOGRAVURE - "IN CONNECTICUT" from the original painting by GEORGE H. SMILLIE, published by Appleton & Co. New York, in 1890.  This photogravure is in very good condition.  The picture itself measures 6 3/4" x 12'' and is matted to 16" x 20" in a cream colored mat for easy framing.

Photogravure refers to a type of printing process that uses photographic images to reproduce images onto paper.  Appleton & Co. produced many high quality photogravures of museum quality paintings done by the masters of the 19^th century, using this high quality method.  These are now rare images of paintings that have become very collectible.  They are printed on very heavy stock paper, and are very clear, beautiful pieces of art.
