Miniature Painting on Ivory Lady with Miniature c1840 Catalogue: Fine Art: Paintings: Miniatures: Pre 1837 VR item# 959630 (stock# a1148)
click for details		Leslie Antiques Ltd. (212)348-9073 $675.00
A nicely done miniature painting on ivory of a lovely young woman. The sitter in this portrait is wearing a pendant that appears, in my opinion and under high magnification, to be a miniature portrait. A miniature with a sitter wearing a miniature is quite rare, but please keep in mind that this is my interpretation. Whether or not the young woman is wearing a cased miniature, the painting is truly charming, and rendered with wonderful details. She has an elaborate hairdo, gold drop earrings, an ...click for details

click for details		Leslie Antiques Ltd. (212)348-9073 SOLD
A folky miniature portrait on ivory, signed on the back: "Painted by M.B. Russell", and naming the sitter as Mrs. Rebecca Howe. The painting is also signed along the left side "M.B. Russell 1850". Although the sitter is of rather plain aspect, Russell has imbued the painting with a wonderful feeling of folkiness and naivete, possibly as a result of his wife's influence, or her actual participation in the work. It is quite unusual to have any miniature fully signed, dated ...click for details

Beautifully executed miniature painting on ivory of an attractive young woman. According to writing on the reverse, the sitter is Julia Weigale, of NY, and the portrait was done in 1861. The rendering of the details, from the sheen in the hair, the brooch, the careful shadings of the dress, and the exquisite treatment of the lace, indicates that the artist was quite talented and might have had some professional training.
