Miniature Gouache Painting In The Louis XVI Style Bronze Frame Portrait Of A Young Woman

This hand-painted miniature, in the style of the 18th century, depicts a young woman with a rosy complexion, against a pale blue and sepia-toned background.

She is shown in bust form in a blue dress with ruffled neckline and white shawl held in place by a rose. Her powdered hair falls to her shoulders.

Cisplayed with stylized roses, its original gilded bronze frame is topped by a large Louis XVI bow on the pediment.

The base is held in place by an oval plate that follows the contours of the frame. Its suspension ring allows it to be hung on the wall, unless you choose to display it on a small easel. The bottom can be unscrewed to remove the miniature (see photo).

French school of the late 19th century-early 20th century.
