18th Century Trumeau

This is a Trumeau, being an oil painting married to a mirror.  These were popular in France during the 1700's.  I cut off the mirrow in this image.  This particular piece is unsigned (or it is well concealed) and depicts a piper of that era.  I have not seen this in any collection of piping art to date.  Very interesting.
