Marking(s): None Cataloguer's Note: This exquisite nineteenth-century portrait miniature depicts an elegant young noblewoman or wealthy aristocrat. Her hair is coiffed in a highly specific style typical of the late 19th-century romantic revival era, arranged in voluminous sausage curls flanking her face and bound by a delicate pearl strand across her forehead. She is dressed in an opulent, deep wine-colored off-the-shoulder gown accented by an intricate drop pearl necklace. The miniature is housed in a beautifully crafted, openwork oval frame topped with a classic Louis XVI-style tied ribbon bow and trailing olive leaf garlands. H 4.25" x W 3.25" Good antique condition.
