    19th-Century English School

    Portrait Of A Lady

    This charming mid-19th-century English school watercolour depicts an elegant lady wearing a sumptuous white dress, tight bodice and black gloves. Her hair is styled into partial side coils according to the fashion of the 1860s.

    Gentle portrayals, such as this, are a memento from a time gone by when homes were adorned with family portraits. Many of the smaller pieces were produced by budding artists within the household itself but, in this instance, the fine underdrawing alludes to the work of an accomplished hand. It’s also remarkable for her bewitching smile.

    The portrait is housed within a good later frame.
