Charming miniature painting by Edd Lupper, California painter beloved for his whimsical images of animals. Lupper's precise, detailed, imaginative scenes often feature animals and fantastical elements in realistic settings.
This piece depicts three animals, a leopard, an artic fox and a panda in a hot air balloon basket against a blue background with flowers. The gold gilt wood frame shows wear and a some nicks commensurate with age. Good overall condition - the painting is in excellent shape and displays very well.
