Description

This is a finely painted copy of an original miniature painted in 1765 by John Smart. It is particularly attractive for the lady’s costume detail: a fur-trimmed lemon surcoat over a blue décolleté dress, the neckline edged with pearls with a pink rose on the corsage together with a beautiful white lace turban decorated with blue ribbon.

*

The portrait is housed in a gilt metal frame with a beaded border, the reverse with a brooch clasp making this a very wearable piece of Georgian art.

Provenance: Bonhams, June 2002

International Shipping: £20

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.
