Romantic and beautiful scarce print, part of a series Abbey was commissioned to create for the Boston Public Library. Believe there were 15 murals in all and they were relating to the Quest of the Holy Grail, Castle of Maidens was second in the series.
Extremely rare Litho, printed in Austria. I consider this to be in extremely nice condition for its age. The piece could use a light cleaning due to storage but the frame and all, very nice. This is believed to be an out of print, early large version. Signed and dated in far right corner, hard to see date, looks like 1902. I am not a professional but this particular piece, it came from a collector, dealer who passed. Hope some or all of the pic's tell the story.
Approx. size of lithograph: 19.25” tall by 48” long - Framed size: 51.5" long by 23.5" tall
