A Mid-19th Century Portrait of a Young Woman by Robert Faulkner 1851

19th century
Description

This superb and striking portrait depicts an attractive young woman, finely dressed with beautifully curled long hair. It is very cleverly drawn with great detail to the face and eyes and very natural soft tones created with the pastel on coloured paper. It is presented in a cushioned veneered birds eye maple frame with a gilt wood slip to lift the work off the glass.

Robert Faulkner was a noted London portrait artist who worked in oil, pastel and watercolour and he often exhibited at the Royal Society of British Artists, Suffolk Street (SS) between 1849 and 1862 and once at the Royal Academy in 1847.

Frame dimensions: height 59cm x width 48cm x depth 3cm

Dealers Notes

Robert Belcher Antiques was established in 1984 and is a high-quality retailer of interesting, rare antiques and decorative objects. After forty years of shop keeping and maintaining beautiful showrooms, which have been regularly open six days a week, Robert and Wendy have now taken a slightly different approach to their business. Having sold their retail premises, the antique business is now fully online. The picture framing service has ceased to operate because of moving online.

You can contact Robert and Wendy by email or telephone to discuss items from their extensive catalogue of attractive pieces and make purchases. Customers can rest assured that the long-established dealership is continuing to run in an exceedingly professional way, selling genuine and high-quality items which are guaranteed to please the most discerning collector, decorator or homeowner.

All items will be personally hand packaged to a high standard. Small items are extensively wrapped using the best materials and are often double boxed. Items are then shipped with DHL or Royal Mail fully insured and often with next day delivery. Larger items would be personally delivered or sent with a specialist antique delivery firm, or for outside the U.K, a professional shipping company.

Please enjoy viewing their collection of rare and interesting pieces and have the assurance that Robert and Wendy will do their utmost to make sure your experience is exceptional, as has been recognised by many customers who have bought with confidence regularly over the years.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Mid-19th-century Victorian portraits feature realistic yet stylised depictions of subjects, highlighting contemporary hairstyles, fashion garments, and social status through pastel, chalk, watercolour, or oil mediums.

Artists frequently utilised pastel, charcoal, or watercolour on paper, framed within polished hardwood or burl wood veneer frames accented by gilded inner slips.

Authentic pieces typically feature contemporary artist signatures, mid-19th-century hairstyles such as ringlets, period-correct joinery on wooden frames, and age-appropriate paper oxidation.

Position the framed portrait as a focal point above a sideboard, mantelpiece, or within a gallery wall to create a sophisticated balance between historic art and modern furnishings.

Display the framed artwork away from direct sunlight and high humidity, ensuring UV-protective glass and acid-free backing materials are used to prevent fading and deterioration.
