Re: Windsor: spring peonies painting
Hello!
I was unable to find any detailed information about your particular painting, but I can tell you what I know... Windsor Art Company made licensed reproductions of art at affordable prices. Your painting is from after 1963, as the back label has a zip code. They also often added a few brush strokes to each painting to give it a more "real" look. It's very possible that it's done on gold leaf, but this is rather unexpensive. WAC paintings are fairly common on the marketplace and rarely sells for more than $30...
If you'd like to find out more I suggest you look here: http://www.bathantiquesonline.com/search/antiques-price-guide/windsor-art-products/results-1.html
Best of luck!
