Description

A beautifully detailed American folk art portrait of a young girl seated in a wooden chair. She is dressed in a white frock with lace trim and a blue sash at the waist, holding a pink rose. Her dark hair is arranged in a coronet braid, fashionable in the mid-1800s, and she wears blue teardrop earrings and a pearl necklace. Signed 'M. Koller' lower right and dated 1850. On canvas.

Condition

The artwork exhibits signs of wear consistent with age. Light surface discolouration throughout, including yellowing to the varnish layer. Abrasion is noted to the edges of the canvas caused by previous framing. Fine craquelure is observed throughout the paint surface. Inspection under UV light reveals minor surface restoration. Overall, the artwork presents in very good condition for its age.
