This comparison demonstrates that original is important but not always good. For Parke Custis Dougherty's Winter Morning, Quai Voltaire (1909, oil on canvas), a late 19th- to early 20th-century French rococo-revival gilt composition frame in the Louis XV style (above) replaced the original early 20th-century American Impressionist carved and gilt baguette-style frame (below). An important part of the painting's story,
the original frame will be retained with the reframed work.
