This formal portrait depicts a woman in early 18th-century dress, wearing an elegant dark gown with white lace trim and a red drape or shawl. She holds jasmine flowers in her hand, symbolising love, sensuality and grace. The style of the painting resembles that of Michael Dahl (British/Swedish 1659-1743), who was working widely with English gentry at the time this portrait would have been painted. Unsigned. On canvas.
Condition
