This Edwardian portrait miniature depicts a young woman with soft brown curls and blue eyes, wearing a blue dress with a white lace-collared trim. Painted in watercolour on paper within the British School tradition around 1910, the artwork sits inside an oval gilt brass frame complete with a top suspension loop and glazing. The composition measures 8.1 cm high, 5.8 cm wide, and 0.7 cm deep, displaying overall excellent original condition commensurate with age. In a contemporary home, the piece suits narrow wall spaces, hallways, or intimate interior settings where small works of art receive close appreciation. Collectors and interior decorators hang such portrait miniatures alongside larger groupings or display them on dedicated surfaces within traditional English Country House aesthetics.

FAQs

Popular during the early 20th century, an Edwardian portrait miniature is a detailed, small-scale portrait, often executed in watercolour or gouache, depicting individuals in period dress and mounted in decorative metal frames.

Portrait miniatures were typically painted using fine watercolour or gouache techniques on card, vellum, or organic plates, encased in protective glass within brass, copper, or gilt bronze oval frames.

Authentic pieces feature delicate brushwork visible under magnification, era-appropriate hairstyles and dress fashions from circa 1900 to 1910, original oval mountings, and age-consistent metal oxidisation.

Miniature portraits can be displayed as part of a curated gallery wall, supported on a small tabletop display easel, or hung in narrow alcoves and bookshelves to provide historic detail.

Store and display the miniature away from direct sunlight and moisture to prevent fading and pigment deterioration, cleaning the outer metal frame gently with a dry microfiber cloth.
