About This Object
A large scale oil painting of Orpheus and Eurydice, in its original ebonised frame, signed P.J.Antoine.
Belgium, 1908.
Why we like it
This amazingly dramatic scene from a beautiful ancient Greek love story is very well executed on a rather grand scale to a wonderful decorative effect.
This painting has a signature 'P.J.Antoine', possibly that of the Belgian artist Pierre Joseph Antoine (1840-1913).
