"Miniature On Ivory From The Beginning Of The XIXth Representing The Three Graces."
Miniature on ivory from the early 19th century representing the three graces presented in a gilt bronze frame in Louis XVI style. Very beautiful miniature which, at the origin, could have an octagonal shape and which was enlarged, surrounded by a beige and gold Marie-Louise, the whole protected by a curved glass in a very beautiful frame in gilded bronze. Our three graces are located in the center of a park, posing in front of a pool surrounded by thickets and flowers. Superb academic nude which embodies the canons of beauty of the time. Painting diameter: 7 cms Frame diameter: 11x13 cms and 1.2cm thick
