About the Item
A striking English School pastel portrait circa 1840. The sitter is a beautiful young woman with sharp features and blue eyes. She is wearing an elegant blue dress in a style fashionable in the 1840s. Her hair is similarly styled in line with the fashions of the era. The woman is wearing a dark brown fur stole, likely stoat or sable. The artist has used the pastel in a masterful way, creating depth and softness in the sitter's face. The portrait has a surprising richness in colour. The portrait is unsigned and presented in a fine quality early 20th century gilt oval frame. On paper laid to stretched canvas.
