This is a pair of charming antique Guardian Angel prints.
*"Now We Fold Our Hands And Pray": This is a heart-warming antique print from ‘The Guardian Angel Picture Series’, titled, "Now We Fold Our Hands And Pray". This picture is filled with a multitude of wonderful, charming details. Everywhere you look something interesting is going on. This inspirational scene features two adult guardian angels standing in the corner of the room praying along with a mother and her two children. A bible sits on the couch beside the mother and little boy. Two more angelic angels are seen playing with the little boy’s toy clown and tucking in the girl’s doll to bed. It’s very sweet.

Above the family, hanging on the wall, are three religious pictures of Mary and Jesus. A second bible sits, displayed on the bookcase. Another great detail that cannot be forgotten is the family cat, seen praying beside the mother’s feet (maybe she’s just licking her paws, but let us pretend atleast that she’s praying). This print is in excellent original condition with bright, lovely colors throughout. The original molded wood frame retains its original cream-colored finish. The original paper backing provides a lot of interesting information about this print, including a blessing that matches the picture and the publisher, "St. Anthony Guild Press; Patterson, New Jersey". (see photo) Original glass and old brass hanger. This piece would make a wonderful addition to any baby’s nursery or child’s room. Circa 1920's.
*"All Asleep But The Angels": This is a wonderfully inspiring antique print titled, "All Asleep But The Angels". It’s a peaceful bedtime picture featuring 5 sweet angels tucking in the children to bed. One little angel is seen standing on his tiptoes, peaking over the bedpost at the little girl. Another is holding a doll and the third little angel appears to be sorting and putting away the children’s clothes for the night. A crucifix and a religious picture of Mary and Baby Jesus hand on the wall above the sleeping children. What a pleasant scene! This print is one of eleven, from the Guardian Angel Picture Series. The original painting was made for a children’s book titled, "John and Joan and Their Guardian Angels". This print is No. 76-2. The publisher is St. Anthony Guild Press, Paterson, New Jersey. The original paper backing is mostly intact and includes the title, publisher, item number, history, and a lovely verse that corresponds to the picture. This print is in its original molded wood frame. I believe the frame was originally painted gold, but is now a pretty cream color. It must have been re-painted quite a long time ago because the cream-painted frame ‘looks’ very original. The color of the frame is also very complimentary to the calm and quiet shades of the picture. The print is in excellent original condition. The frame is also in excellent original condition, except for minimal age-appropriate wear to the old cream-colored finish. Original glass and original round metal hanger. Circa 1920’s. |
