About the Item

A delightful 19th-century portrait of a refined young lady. The subject is dressed in a blue gown adorned with delicate lace, her porcelain-like skin gently blushed with rosy cheeks. Her captivating gaze is softened by a faint half-smile, lending a quiet warmth to her expression. In her hands, she holds a small Bible, a marker of her piety and devotion. Unsigned. Well presented in a substantial gilt frame. Acquired as a pair - the companion piece 'The Captain' is also for sale on our website (sk843). On canvas on stretchers.
