A wonderful quality oil on artist board portrait of a lady. The sitter has the most wonderful costume with an amazing hair style and feathered hat. The work is not signed but it obviously by a professional hand. It has been cleaned and very minor repairs professionally made. The portrait is mounted in the original fine gilt frame with all original gilding. The painting does retain some provenance on the reverse describing the sitter as Isabella Thompson Wake 1846-1902 of Sunderland and assigning the work as a gift to her grandson Delmar Banks. The whole is in excellent ready to hang condition and is a wonderful example of Victorian portraiture and costume.
