Stunning Antique Portrait Miniature on Ivory, Incised Ivory Frame

Fine Art : Paintings : Miniature Paintings, Grand Tour

 
Fabulous & rare antique Napoleon III era hand painted portrait miniature on ivory, a rare grisaille style painting and beautifully displayed in the original engraved or incised genuine ivory frame! The ivory frame and exquisitely detailed miniature combine here in a truly stunning visual experience, don't you think! Subtle, pale tones but with such breathtaking detail that the sitter, while not the most alluring that I've seen, simply captivate! I've tried to add a host of clear, crisp photos so look & enjoy!

Excellent condition! No chips or repairs to the ivory frame, nothing missing and only some very slight age or drying hairlines. The portrait also superb, no warping, edge chips or cracks and no damage or fading to the paint. See pictures for measurements.
