Handpainted American naieve miniature portrait in oil on cardboard of a woman holding a pair of gloves. <BR>Painting measures 3 1/4 X 2 1/4inches and frame is 7 X 2 3/4inches.<BR>A rich young lady had her portrait painted wearing a huge red dress. Dark hair looped around her ears and a golden band with medallion on her forehead. Wonderful peaches and cream complexion. She holds a pair of golden/mustard coloured gloves in her hands. She wears at least two bracelets and a ring on her fourth finger. Fascinating depicting of an early American society lady. <BR>The frame is gold-coloured metal, probably brass with attractive foliage and floral swags. A ring at the top from which it can be hung. <BR>On the back of the painting (inside the frame), is an old lable that tells us that the painting is American naieve and the old price was $1250.00 (my price is not close to that). <BR>There is typical crazing to the paint, which is normal and acceptable of a work this age (well over 100 years old). There is also a scratch on the surface, top right corner, very clearly shown in the photos. It does not perforate beyond the paint.
