Description: Maxfield Parrish “Bellerophon By The Fountain Of Pirene”. (AKA ‘The Chimera’). Original Framed Color Illustration (facing page 144) from the 1910 First Edition of Hawthorne’s ‘A Wonder Book And Tanglewood Tales’. The image measures 6 1/4”x 5”. Outermost Frame dimensions are 8 3/4”x 7”. The period frame is a re-purposed photo frame from the 30’s. This was originally painted for, and appeared as the color frontispiece in the May 15, 1909 issue of Colliers Magazine, issued as a print (titled ‘The Chimera’) the same year and used in this publication and several subsequent editions. This piece was framed with acid-free rag board, new hardware and dustcover in May, 2023 and is ready to hang. A nice size/cost alternative to the large print. Note: The first 11 photos are taken without glass to avoid reflection/glare issues, photos 12, 13 & 14 after completion of project. Also Note: The last photo, (#15) the book itself, and tissue lining are shown for provenance only: the book is NOT included. The tissue lining WILL be included. I refund shipping charges over actual. Excuse the reflections. Please visit my other Parrish listings. Thanks for looking.
