Up for sale today is this very rare painting on a cobweb dating to circa 1850\'s and most likely done in Germany or Austria. The painting is in its original gold gilt frame and the cobweb canvas is sandwiched between glass. The painting measures 4\" x 3\" sight and with the frame it measures 7\" x 5 3/8\". Over the years the cobweb canvas has shrunk and cause a few separations but to be found in any condition is quite remarkable.

The cobwebs obtained for the early Austrian example came from Agelenidae funnel-web spiders, whose gossamer sheets were collected in the form of a thin canvas, then put under tension to make an oval blank. The canvas can be strengthened by brushing diluted milk onto the web with great care. Considerable attention must be taken to clean the web, removing insect parts, spider droppings, etc. It is noted that people were employed specifically to collect the large amount of cobwebs required for the many canvases
