£407.00
19th-century French School oil on canvas portrait painting. The artwork is smooth to the touch.
A small scale half-length portrait of a woman dressed in black wearing a white cotton bonnet. The codes of the period portrait are respected with dark colors and the serious expression of the character. The use of light and shadow is realistic and is supported by detailed facial work.
