Moritz Michael Daffinger (After)

Portrait Of A Lady

A fine portrait miniature of a lady after Austrian painter, Moritz Michael Daffinger (1790-1849). The original work dates to around 1830.

It’s unusual to find a Daffinger copy that exhibits such fine brushwork and quality. We discovered it in Sweden but it’s probably either German or French.

The miniature is held within an attractive brass frame with stand.

Medium: Watercolour and gum arabic
Overall size: 4” x 5” / 10cm x 12cm
Year of creation: c. 1900
Provenance: Sweden
Condition: Very good overall.

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 often restore frames rather than replace them as many are original and selected by the artists themselves.
