Description:

This auction lot features two framed original prints by C. Allan Gilbert, including the famous 1911 illustration 'All Is Vanity' depicting a woman at her vanity that also forms a skull when viewed from a distance, and 'Gossip', another classic optical illusion print. Both artworks are released by House of Art, New York, and showcase Gilbert's mastery in creating dual images with deep symbolic meaning. Each piece is professionally framed in black frames with subtle gold trim. These vintage prints are a remarkable addition for collectors of early 20th-century art and optical illusions.
