About the Item

A very fine Victorian portrait in oil, showing a woman in half mourning. The sitter is wearing a black mourning dress with white lace collar and cuffs and a delicate lace dress cap with pink flowers. She wears a ruby brooch at her neck and her fingers slip through the ring, hung on her gold chain. She has glittering, dark brown eyes with a timid, almost nervous smile. The flash of red to her left and the soft hue in her cheeks an the pink flowers in her cap, add subtly and attractive colour to a traditionally muted and somber Victorian mourning portrait. Unsigned. On canvas.
