    18th-Century French School, Portrait Of A Lady In Blue

    A fine 18th-century portrait of a young lady in a blue dress with a white shawl. Her outfit aligns with the fashion of the 1770s, which was understated when compared to the extravagance of the Marie Antoinette era.

    Her refined style is enhanced with a large diamond earring and a rose suggestively placed in the bosom. A rose is sometimes placed here to attract a potential suitor and suggest availability.

    We particularly love her friendly, almost cheeky, expression.

    The portrait is housed within a gilded frame.

    Medium: Oil on canvas
    Overall size: 22” x 28” / 56cm x 72cm
    Year of creation: c. 1770
    Provenance: France
    Condition: Areas of craquelure but the paint layer is stable. Canvas relined. Stretcher replaced. Frame with some age-related wear.
