"Miniature Portrait Of A Child In A White Cap, Empire Period"
Very beautiful miniature representing a young child dressed in a white dress and hat embroidered in chain stitch forming dots.The child is represented in three-quarter view, with the background of the blue-gray sky and a wooded landscape.
The two hands of the child are placed on his chest at the level of the heart, probably symbolizing the love and affection he has for the recipient of the miniature.
The dress is very typical for the 1800-1810 period
