Then another question.
It has no hint of craquelure. Canvas is clearly old. Tried otschepnut piece paint around the edges, but a feeling that stuck.
Could this be some kind of printing?
And about the time the copy?

The print did not seem to seem to see Pap. But there was a technique called at home "wreath" when he prescribed the artist printed image. Vzmite magnifying glass and inspect the canvas there are any omissions of paint.
The plot is very popular, I still somewhere there are two or three similar copies. By the time, I think, the late XIX - XX centuries.

That is, should be visible foundation of the canvas?

And what is the reason for these omissions?

vyadem, cause release - inattention, carelessness artist haste.
And in the Pass will not see the canvas, and a fragment of the printed image (raster).

Toinen, is now understood.
Thank you!

Always glad to help!

Toinen, even forgot to ask.
When born, this "wreath" and was common?
Correctly understood the process: drawing deposited hard copy on paper and Jell on canvas?
Or directly applied to the canvas?

That's right!
The second half of the XIX century.
