About the Item

Manner of George Chinnery (English, 1774-1852), a softly rendered portrait of a young woman, unsigned, in carved and gilded wood frame A remnant "...R. Davy, Colourman to Artists, 83, Newman Street, London" label on verso. Christie's inventory tags also on verso. A little gem of a portrait, this painting also contains lovely details such as a flower adorning the young woman's hair, a pink shawl draped on the chair, and an ornate gilt mirror with candelabra visible in the background. Robert Davy (c.1771-1843) established his business in the 1790s. He began his career as a carver and gilder and picture framemaker. By 1825 Davy’s special interest in panels and millboards is apparent from his Post Office directory listing as ‘Prepared Panel & Mill-board manufacturer & Artists’ colourman, Framemaker, & c’. Charles Davy (c.1800-1872) succeeded his father in 1843. Davy’s marks can be conveniently divided according to addresses: 16 Wardour St. until 1822/23 and 83 Newman St from 1822.
