Antique IVORY Portrait Redhead Framed 19th cent
$950.00
This is an exquisite 19th century double framed ( from an art gallery) portrait on ivory that has a red head with an upswept style and lovely soft tulle that looks like a cloud around her shoulders. The portrait in in great condition and the spots you see are from the glass around it. Hand painted she sits inside a shadowbox frame that is 8 3/4 x 7 1 3/4 thick. She is 4 tall and she has her original metal ribbon frame which is inset into a deep red velvet. Not often do you see the redheads so this makes her a bit more desirable. I have more photos of this and you can see a closeup of the top of her hair where you can see that evey soft tendril and every hair was painted. Feel free to email me for that and more photos of her. You actually think you are looking at real hair. NOW that is detailed and the work of a very talented artist. The back of this shows that it was done for a gallery called Francis Hendricks and CO.Art dealers Syracuse NY. The back has never been taken off of this so it is in its original condition as when mounted.
