Portrait of a woman with a small dog.

Exceptional portrait of a lady of quality, superbly painted, embodying feminine elegance from the reign of Louis XV. She is dressed in precious garments; a deep blue silk velvet gown, with lace details and embroidery; flowers dotted in her hair, a lovely subtle gaze. An adorable little dog with a red bow, echoing the red taffeta of the cloak, is comfortably nestled against its mistress. Back frame, a small缺少 in the centre of the painting (see photo). * Brooch and arm jewellery highlight her noble status. Dimensions: inner frame: 71 cm X 88 cm // outer frame: 91 cm X 106 cm.
