Description
A beautiful mid 19th Century portrait of a pretty young girl, sitting on a grassy verge, playing a skin drum. While she is sitting in a rural setting, with a woolen apron over her lap, the artist has unusually juxtaposed these tropes of peasant life, with her fine dress, well groomed hair and exquisite pearl and gold jewelry. The portrait is delicately rendered with the Romanticism, typical of Victorian portraiture of this style. The painting is unsigned and presented in a simple, white painted frame. On board.Condition
The condition is typical for a picture of this age including some discolouration. There is some craquelure to the surface.
