Mouchoirs D'Instruction Militaire No. 3 Cavalerie, late 19th-early 20th century, printed cotton fabric, illustrating everything equestrian for the aspiring cavalier.

26.5 x 29 in.; DOA in frame 33 x 37 in.;

Some stains; areas of loss in NW quadrant and above music in the central medallion. Not examined out of the frame, but overall good appearance.
