FAQs

A Georgian pastel portrait is an artwork created using dry pigment sticks during the 18th or early 19th century, characterised by matte finishes and soft skin tones.

These portraits were drawn with ground pigment and binder on paper or vellum, then mounted inside carved giltwood frames beneath protective glass.

Authentic pieces feature original wooden backings, hand-carved gilding wear, period glass with slight irregularities, and natural paper oxidisation.

Position the artwork on a narrow wall space or integrate it into a gallery wall alongside modern artwork and contemporary furniture.

Keep the portrait out of direct sunlight, maintain stable humidity to prevent mould, and ensure the glass does not touch the pastel surface.
