AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Portrait of a Lady

School: European, 19th century

Style: 19th-century portrait

Technique: oil on canvas

This portrait depicts a middle-aged lady, portrayed with the serenity and the characteristic attention to detail of 19th-century European painting. The figure appears seated on an armchair upholstered in reddish tones, whose curved and studded back adds an elegant touch to the composition.

The protagonist wears a dark outfit with a finely crafted white lace blouse, revealing the meticulousness of the pleats and transparencies. A red ribbon at the neck introduces a splash of color that contrasts with the sobriety of the ensemble. The hairstyle, neatly gathered, reflects the nineteenth-century taste, as does the calm expression and restrained gesture, characteristic of the bourgeois portrait of the era.

The warm, neutral background highlights the presence of the figure, emphasizing the soft lighting that especially falls on the face and hands, giving the portrait an intimate and contemplative character.

The work is presented with a simple frame, featuring straight lines and a narrow molding, finished in a dark tone. It provides an appropriate presentation without detracting from the prominence of the central figure.
The frame comes as a gift. It may be damaged during transport even if it is properly packaged.

Measurements: 72.4 x 59.2 cm

Remarks:

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

Due to border issues with Switzerland, we regret to inform you that shipments exceeding 1 meter in length or height to that destination will not be carried out.

The works are shipped without insurance; if you wish to purchase insurance for the transport, it must be requested in advance via private message. If not requested, we will not be responsible for any damages that may occur during shipping.
