Antique French Fruit Still Life Lithograph by A. Pascal, c. 1860's-1880's

A luminous 19th-century French color lithograph celebrating the abundance of the harvest. A. Pascal's composition arranges peaches, plums, strawberries, red currants, and green grapes in a woven basket, surrounded by lush foliage and rendered in a restrained palette of mossy greens, ochres, and deep berry red.

Published in Paris by Monrocq Frères—the celebrated lithographic house at 3 rue Suger—and printed by the distinguished firm Lemercier, Bernard & Cie. The print bears the maker's marks "A. Pascal del." and "Paris. Monrocq frères Éditeurs. Suger, No. 1."

Presented in layered neutral matting within a substantial contemporary gilt frame featuring delicate beaded detailing. The generous framing lends the delicate antique print considerable decorative presence and scale, ideal for a dining room, kitchen, or entertaining space.
