Austrian Portrait Of A Woman With Pearls

An unusual Austrian portrait of a woman with wavy blonde hair and a pearl necklace. Her eyes peer through a network of extensive craquelure, which gives the painting a ‘lost in time’ quality.

It seems to be the work of a ‘Portrait House’ in Vienna as it’s signed ‘Wiener Portrat Haus 1904’ and also stamped on the reverse.

Housed within what appears to be its original frame.
