"19th Century French School: "mozart""
French school of the 19th century : "Mozart" miniature on rectangular ivory 6 x 4.5 cm, mounted in a blackened wooden miniature frame 14 X 11.5 cm with a view surrounded by a brass marie-louise with an oval view 6 X 5cm. Our miniature, very difficult to photograph because of the reflections on the glass, shows us a handsome man in profile, with hair tied by a ribbon at the back, a garnet velvet coat and a foaming white tie edged in blue. The attribution of the model to Mozart who appears behind is plausible if I judge by comparison with other portraits of the time. Do not hesitate to ask us for photos or additional information by email or telephone. Other photos and many other objects in our shops in Pau and Biarritz and on our website: galerielhoste.com.
