Description

A powerful portrait of a lady dating from the Edwardian period, probably Italian , and set within an earlier 19th century burr oak cushion moulded frame with gilt slip. The portrait is superbly painted with the features of the ladys face finely painted even with the attention to the details of the baby hairs around her hairline. The body and the background are much more freely painted with a more expressive brush stroke which draws you into the painting, making the ladys face the focal point of the painting.

The painting is in good condition and has been relined a long time ago, there is also a stamp on the stretcher which is pictured.
