William Hill Thomson, Portrait of a Lady - Vintage Watercolour

1920 - 1940
Description

This sublime 1930s portrait by William Hill Thomson (1882-1956) depicts a stylish young lady wearing a pink top and a pearl necklace. She carries a demure expression, enigmatic, gazing back at us across the decades.

Thomson was known as an accomplished miniaturist and he’s rendered this larger work with an exquisite level of detail. Note the light on the pearls and the shading on her left cheek.

It’s an elegant portrayal that captures the spirit of the early 30s.

Signed in the lower right and framed.

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.
