Framed 18th Century Oil - Portrait of a Lady with a Ferronnière

A fine eighteenth-century portrait of an aristocratic lady wearing a pale blue dress and lace shawl. This portrait was acquired as part of a pair; the other depicts her husband and is also listed (sw260). She wears a string of pearls in her hair and her shawl is tied with a sprig of pink flowers, matching the embroidery on her husband's waistcoat. The work is well presented in a gilt oval frame with a beaded running pattern. Unsigned. On canvas on stretchers.
