Fine condition.  This is a very special and hard to find antique patriotic print titled, "PEACE".  I’ve never seen anything like this before.  What makes this piece so interesting is that not only are there a march of soldiers being welcomed back from war by family and friends, but Jesus and two white doves are soaring over top, watching over the soldiers.  The two doves are holding the fancy lettered banner that reads ‘Peace’.  This is a fascinating print with a lot of emotion and detail throughout.  Original, decorative, gold-painted wood frame.  Original glass and old wire hanger.
