Portrait of a Lady in a Blue Dress, Naive Antique Oil Painting, 19th Century, Folk Art

19th century
Description

A charming continental portrait of a middle-aged lady in a blue dress and a white blouse. Her hair is parted in the centre and partially pulled back into a bun, which was a style that became popular in the 1840s.

At around the same time, the fashion was also characterised by sloping shoulders, bell-shaped skirts and low-pointed waists, so this lady is certainly dressed to impress.

She’s also wearing beautiful jewellery, which the artist has cleverly highlighted by layering the paint on thickly in those areas.

Medium: Oil on canvas

Size: 14½” x 12” / 37cm x 30cm x 2cm

Year of creation: c. 1840 - c. 1860

Condition: Craquelure throughout.
