Description from the seller
Antique oil painting on canvas depicting a portrait of a noblewoman with a gilded wooden frame contemporaneous with it.
It portrays a woman of high social standing, dressed in a gown of bright colors such as red and blue, and depicted in three-quarters, with her gaze directed at the viewer and her chest exposed.
With her left hand she holds a mask, while with the other she lifts the veil in a sensuous attitude.
Note the careful rendering of the facial features, the attention to the nuances of the complexion, the sharpness of the contours highlighted by the light.
Condition: Good.
Provenance: Venice, 19th century.
Dimensions: 50x60 cm.
