Portraiture is a tricky thing in the antique world... While many photographs of the 19th century, minted by the freshly named "Camera Obscura," allow us to date their creation by the environment and clothes worn, portraiture had a long history of costume, historical emulation, and "influencer behavior." And that's exactly what we see here; a beautiful portrait from the middle of the 19th century, seeks to emulate renaissance dress, and fantastical hair! Finely hand painted on porcelain, this piece depicts a young lady, with her blond hair styled in ringlets, and a wry smile on her face. Converted from a brooch, we have paired this lovely girl with a replica shank adorned with flowers on the shoulders. A wonderful, classic work of art which is essential to any collector of antique jewelry!
