This is a rare collection of four framed silhouette portraits of a 19th century family, each noted and featuring intricate detailing. Two male and two female subjects are portrayed in profile, wearing period clothing.  The set is housed in matching wooden frames with a warm, burled finish.  Old London newspaper clippings line the backs.

Dimensions:  Each portrait measures approximately 7" x 6" overall.

Condition

The portraits themselves are in fair to good condition, with age-related wear and staining visible on the paper. The frames have a rich patina, though some wear and small scratches are noted along the edges, particularly at the corners.
