PINPRICK PICTURE - Bird in a Tree with Butterfly.

c. 1825. 210 x 190 mm. pinprick and watercolour. Pinprick pictures originated in the parlours of the late 18th Century as one of the many ways of amusement with paper. The fashion for cut and pricked paperwork lasted well into the Victorian Age and became more sophisticated. Pinprick pictures were occasionally enhanced with additional watercolour as here. This is one of a small collection, probably by the same artist.
