About the Item

A very fine early 20th Century portrait in delicate pastel, showing a refined older woman in elegant black dress with a white lace cap. She holds her knitting in her lap as she gazes off into the distance. The portrait has a beautiful haziness about the sitter's face, whilst retaining character and poise. The artist has signed and dated in their typical fashion to the upper left corner. On wove board.
