Very Large Portrait, 19th Century

This very large portrait shows a young woman in a black dress, undoubtedly a mourning outfit. Sober and restrained, this painting nevertheless suggests the upper bourgeoisie in a few unmistakable details. In addition to the actual dimensions of the portrait, there is also the neat hairstyle, the lace collar closed by a brooch adorned with an imposing cameo, the lace sleeves also, held in place by blue satin ribbons, an avatar of black in this context of mourning. On the left handle of the model, a large bracelet bears initials in the cabochon, probably those of her late husband, embroidered with hair, as was often the custom in the 19th century. In the right hand, a gold rosary recalls the piety of the model.
This very beautiful portrait in oval format is in very good condition.
