About the Item

A 19th-century watercolour portrait of a young infant lying on white linen. The artist has carefully captured the soft, luminous quality of the infant's skin against the flowing folds of the fabric. The composition employs dramatic chiaroscuro lighting that illuminates the child's peaceful expression while casting dark shadows in the background. The artist demonstrates a skilled handling of light and form in this Old Master-style composition, possibly a crop from a famous fresco work. The painting is well presented in an antique gilt frame with delicate running patterns. Unsigned. On paper.
