I have a lot of fabulous portrait miniatures that I just keep neglecting to get listed, so I'm going to do so now in a rather brief process, giving just the minimum. This one is a fabulous little painting in gouache, framed in a simple but elegant brass frame, and is likely French in origin. Dates c.1780-1820, and the extra fun thing is that vicious little dog she holds on her lap. Isn't this one fun!
No damage to painting, a little drop of paint at 10 o'clock position, near outer edge. Photos tell all. Measurements noted on images.
