Early 20th-Century French School Portrait Of A Woman In Profile

A stylish early 20th-century French school portrait of a woman in profile. This intriguing piece is brought to life by the use of a dark green background, which contrasts with the figure. We love her expression and unusual stance.

The portrait is housed within a period frame.

Conservation & History

We care profoundly about our role as custodians and every piece in the collection has been assessed by our conservator. When required, we undertake professional restoration carefully using reversible techniques and adopt a light touch to retain the aged charm of each work. We also restore frames rather than replace them as many are original and selected by the artists themselves.
