Description

These appear to be embroidered on silk and are framed in black wood frames.  The name on the sticker on the back is Francis Hendricks Art Dealer.   This company was based in Syracuse, NY late 1800's to early 1900's.    I think they must have been framed during that time period.   There are no stains on the fabric and the stitching is very even.   Hard to believe it could have been done by hand. 

 

The backs are covered in paper that is in poor shape, crumbling and falling away from frame.   I have not taken these out to see if there is more design on the fabric.   I picked them up at a flea market because they were interesting.  I am wondering what value they  may have or if I should remove them from the frames to see if there is more detail or possible more pictures.

Any comments or help is appreicated!
