A fine early Victorian portrait of a dignified matronly woman, finely dress in black with a delicate lace bonnet and collar and an exquisite jet necklace. The artist shows a wonderfully skilled hand in the detail and delicacy of the lace and the striking simplicity of the crisp highlights on the necklace. Full of character, this painting is a fine example of portraiture and fashion from the era. The painting is unsigned and presented in a fine 19th Century gilt frame with bolection profile. On canvas.
Condition
Inspection under UV light reveals some areas of restoration. There are several successful canvas repairs and some minor paint loss to the right. The frame has some scuffing and losses.
