18th Century Oil Miniature – The Three Graces

About the Item

18th Century Oil Miniature – “The Three Graces” Dimensions (closed box): 6 x 5 x 1 cm Exquisite 18th-century oil on ivory miniature (a common technique at the time) depicting “The Three Graces,” mythological figures symbolizing beauty, charm, and creativity. The painting is distinguished by the delicacy of its lines, the harmony of its composition, and the richness of its small-scale details. It is presented in its original shagreen box (ray or shark skin, highly prized in 18th-century luxury cabinetmaking), which adds great value and authenticity to the piece. A collector's item, preserved in good overall condition considering its age. Ideal for lovers of miniatures, classical mythology, and period decorative art.
