19th-Century German School Portrait Of A Saint With White Flowers
A charming late-19th-century portrait of a saint looking to the heavens and holding white flowers. It was probably created by a keen amateur for a place of worship and could be based on another work.
We love his gentle expression, rouged cheeks and large doe eyes.
