About the Item

An exquisite charcoal half length portrait of a lady in a bonnet by prolific Swiss artist Joseph Mathias Negelen. The sitter's facial features have been carefully completed with incredibly detailed tonal work. Perfectly capturing the sitter's character, Negelen displays his impressive skills as a draughtsman. His ability to achieve a hyper realist style would have been hugely popular with the Victorian art dealer. The women's large bonnet with ribbons and ornate lace decoration suggests she probably belonged to the upper classes. She wears a dress with puff sleeves, her hair in ringlets and a demure expression on her face, the attributes required of an upper class lady. This artwork has a Wiltshire Gallery label on the reverse and is presented in a modern frame and card mount. Signed and dated. On wove.
