About the Item

Antique Renaissance style porcelain portrait with enamel by Lamy French, circa 1880 Measures: Frame height 52cm, width 49cm, depth 3cm Plaque height 33cm, width 30m, depth 0.5cm This unusually contemporary style porcelain plaque is a beautiful example of French eclectic design in the late 19th century. It depicts a portrait of a young woman dressed in Renaissance style garments. Her serious expression is complemented by the monochrome palette of the painted porcelain underneath. Her clothing, in contrast, is enameled in vibrant colors, with rich textural detailing throughout. She stands before a brown drawn curtain, decorated with a gold scrolled pattern. The portrait is held in a giltwood frame, which features a velvet mount. It is signed 'Lamy' to the lower left.
