AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Title: Portrait of a Lady

School: European School (19th century)

Style: Academic realistic.

Technique: Oil on canvas

Female half-bust portrait represented within an oval composition, characteristic of European bourgeois portraiture in the 19th century. The figure appears facing forward, slightly turned, with a sober and restrained expression, conveying serenity and dignity. She wears dark attire typical of the period, with delicate white lace details at the neck and on the headdress, which provide contrast and refinement to the composition. The naturalistic treatment of the face stands out, with special attention to the flesh tones, the soft modeling of the volumes, and the introspective gaze. The neutral, dark background reinforces the prominence of the figure, following the academic canons of nineteenth-century portraiture. The work shows restorations, in keeping with its age.

Carved and gilded wooden frame, with a classic profile, featuring smooth moldings and discreet decoration, in keeping with the work's period. It shows patina from the passage of time and slight signs of wear, which do not detract from the overall ensemble and enhance its historical character.
The frame comes as a gift. It may be damaged during transport even if it is properly packaged.

Exceptionally, shipping costs may be affected by an additional charge due to reasons such as being outside a continental territory, excess measurements, or weight of the item. Under no circumstances will PremiArt cover this additional charge.
