EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century portrait captures the essence of youth and beauty in its depiction of a young woman, estimated to have been painted between 1725 and 1775 by the English School. The young woman gazes directly at the viewer with a confident and alluring expression, her fair blonde hair cascading down her shoulders in soft waves. Her dress, adorned with a fashionable bassetaille, is a stunning example of the elegance and refinement of the time, with its pink and green color palette and intricate copper enamel detailing. The neckline of her dress is delicately adorned with a rose-colored enamelie pendant, adding an air of sophistication and charm. The woman's outfit is completed with a pair of earrings and a bracelet, both made of enamelled metal. The oval shaped canvas, a popular choice for miniature portraits during this period, adds to the intimate and personal feel of the painting. This portrait is a testament to the artistic heritage of Britain during the eighteenth century and a reminder of the timeless beauty and allure of the past. Currently on display at the Musée Cognacq-Jay in Paris, this portrait is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of fashion, art, and the human spirit.
