An antique circular monochrome print of "The Sea Hath its Pearls" after the famous 1897 painting by British artist William Henry Margetson (1861–1940). The composition portrays a woman in classical draped robes standing barefoot along the shoreline, bending slightly forward as she gazes down at a seashell held in her hands.

Over the decades, the print has softened into a quiet, muted palette of pale sepia, and warm grey. Presented behind glass inside a circular aperture cut into a textured mauve-taupe mat board housed in a slender, dark oak frame.

See the last photo for an image of the original painting.
