Fine Late 19th Century Watercolour - Lucy

Unknown

About the Item

A fine and detailed watercolour portrait in the realist style, entitled 'Lucy, Early Period' from an inscription to the reverse. The artist has chosen to depict the sitter in profile, wearing a large straw hat with red ribbon, and dressed with a lace collar. A real sense of character has been captured, with fine brushwork and careful facial form. The dark background enhances the decorative elements, as well as the complexion of the figure. Well-presented in a gilt wooden frame with an oval double mount, as shown. Unsigned. On wove.
