A late 19thC miniature portrait of a devout lady handpainted on an oval porcelain plaque c1880. This is very likely a continental, possibly Berlin, piece. The portrait depicts a lady in sumptuous robes, with a cross and headdress, costume typical of Northern Europe. The whole is delicately painted but especially the face. The reverse bears a makers stamp - 15. The portrait is housed in a black lacquer frame, which has a minor chip at one corner, not surprising for an antique piece. The plaque itself is in excellent condition. The back has been relined with brown paper.
Image size 8cm high x 6.5cm wide.
