[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 2468285, member: 2844"]Inside this Austro-Hungarian gilded and enamelled locket is a small photo of a Madonna with child. The photo is not contemporary, it is 20th century, and some (..) glued it to the glass. The photo is extremely dark, maybe because of the glue, and the poor girl is hardly recognizable. I would like to replace it with a better photo, preferably of the same Madonna. And no glue! I have been searching the web, using different search terms in different languages, nothing.:( Can our wonderful supersleuths help me please?:) I tweaked the photo, this is the best I could do. As you can see, the Madonna is wearing the usual red dress and blue cloak. She could be wearing a crown. Jesus is on her left arm, in white, and his left arm reaches toward the left. Mary seems to be touching him with her right hand. The original could be Baroque or slightly later.
