About the Item

Signed lower left, 'E. Brown' (English school, 19th century) and dated 'May, 1844'. A fine, mid-nineteenth century portrait of a lady of quality wearing the hairstyle made popular by Queen Victoria in the early years of her reign; the lady shown with a relaxed and informal posture, standing beside a velvet-draped, Neo-Classical column and wearing a satin ball-gown. To the left, we see a view towards a cultivated garden, gently lit by the last of the evening sunset. The artist has accomplished a bravura feat of portraiture, investing his subject with both elegant poise and sweetness of temperament.
