Antique Watercolor Portrait
Antique Watercolor Portrait
$575.00
Europe, ca. 1840. A sensitively rendered watercolor portrait in period lemon gold wood frame. Finely executed, it a depicts a young woman confidently posed on a window ledge, which seems to hint at some kind of pivotal moment. Perhaps a transition from from childhood to adulthood? The viewer is invited in - but only so far. Precise with careful attention paid to textiles and textures. We can’t help but wonder if the red, white, and blue suggest England or France - with our inclinations leaning towards the Continent. A pleasing presence sure to keep a watchful, devoted eye wherever she is placed. In overall excellent antique condition.
Dimensions: 8.75” wide x 10.75” high x 1.5” deep.
