Large Romantic Portrait Of A Little Girl XIX Eme Century

A charming and romantic portrait that leaves no one indifferent.
very beautiful oval portrait dating from the second half of the 19th century, an elegant little girl in a feathered hat, white dress and bouquet of flowers.
this lovely oval portrait is of very good quality and full of romanticism.
The painter captured with great skill the attitude of this little girl painted in the middle of a landscape of wooded countryside in the background.
it's quite unusual to see such a portrait of a child painted in bust and three-quarter length, the face turned to the right.
it's much more interesting than the classic full-face portraits.
the child's face is charming, and remarkably well painted with great gentleness, the painter has also attached great importance to the many details:
the straw hat with blue feathers and the large, strong satin ribbon that has been fashionable since the end of the XVIII th century when the portrait of Marie-Antoinette in Gaul caused a scandal in the salon.
the beautiful white dress, in light lace, the bouquet of wild flowers, the pretty gold cross around the neck as well as the bracelet.
the bucolic background giving way to daydreaming and recalling the countryside described by Colette and by the authors of the second half of the 19th century.
the colors are superb and enjoy the skin tone of the child specific to the romantic school.
the blues are intense and the fabrics very well rendered.
no restoration to report except a matte varnish and a relining in the 20th century.
