Naive School, Watercolour Portrait

19th century
Description

Naïvely painted but radiating charm, this ¾-length watercolour portrait depicts a young lady with the tiniest of waistlines standing before a jade green drape next to a table with her workbox. She appears to be holding a length of lace; perhaps she is proud of her work and wishes to show it off. The style of her vibrantly blue dress with its bell sleeves, wide skirt and neat lace collar fastened with a brooch dates the portrait to the 1840s.

*

Unnamed and with no artist signature, the portrait is set in a stained pine frame with a gilded slip. The background card has a few light spots; the frame has that lovely patina of age with small scratches.

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.

The Sustainable Choice

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.
