Vintage 1917 “Are You From Heaven?” Framed Sheet Music
Description
Equal parts artwork and musical history, this 1917 “Are You From Heaven?” sheet music cover has been beautifully preserved as a framed piece of early 20th-century ephemera.
Written by L. Wolfe Gilbert and Anatol Friedland, the cover features striking black typography against a wonderfully aged yellow ground, along with a dramatic black-and-white portrait. More than a century later, the combination feels surprisingly graphic and distinctive.
The original sheet music has been mounted against a deep brown mat and displayed under glass in a substantial vintage wood frame. The natural wear, creases, softened edges, and aged coloration are exactly what give the piece its character.
Hang it alone as an unexpected conversation piece or work it into a gallery wall alongside antique landscapes, portraits, sketches, and contemporary art. It's the kind of piece that makes a room feel collected rather than decorated.
