"Miniature Early 19th Century Signed Augustin Fils And Dated 1803. "
Beautiful miniature portrait of a child signed by the miniaturist Augustin fils (1779 / 1819) and made using a technique specific to him. The profile painted on paper is cut out and glued on a black background. This well-referenced and documented artist is the nephew of the miniaturist J.B. Augustin. Here the signature is accompanied by a delicate thought which suggests that the model is very close to the artist. Original mounting, frame and glass. Diameter: 7cm. Great freshness for this delicate and rare portrait, typical of the production of this artist.
