"Miniature Still Life Around 1800, Dlg De Lelong"
Precious miniature still life with fruit basket, painted in gouache on paper, from the very end of the 18th century. Great finesse of execution for this work monogrammed "LP", perhaps for "LELONG PIXIT". The patterns of the composition and the craftsmanship correspond well to the works of this artist, but the circular miniature format is unusual. Presented in very good condition, in a strapping pattern of interlacing, probably in two-tone gold. Probably comes from the lid of a box. Diameter 7cm
