Description

ITEM INFO:

I was given this by an elderly woman who had been collecting (and had tons of) antiques for most of her adult life. 

I took the fabric picture out of the frame and found 3 different areas of markings.

1) Says "Parasol girl"

2) Copyright 1803? Or 1808? I cannot make out the year.... It looks more like 1803 the more I look but I don't know...

then goes on to say "by CAMPBELL METZGER AND JACOBSON"

3) I took the best picture I had of this last "marking" on the back. I have no idea what it says, cannot read it.

This item is beautiful, and in what I thought was excellent shape until I saw the back (see pic) and it looks stained from something. The stain does not show on the front at all, I wonder how it even got in there.

Thank you so much, any information is greatly appreciated!

Medium some fabric, not sure. For some reason when I was google searching for the names on the back, the word "lithograph" came up. Not sure what that is, or if it's even related.
Distinguishing marks 3 sets of words on back, listed in my description - other marks in photos
Condition Good
Size and dimensions of this item Just the fabric measures 22.5" by 22.5" -- In the frame it is: 30" Wide and 36" Tall
Date Period The date on the back really looks like it's either 1808 or 1803?
