Miniature portrait of a beauty from the Biedermeier period, around 1825

Against a dark background, the beautiful lady looks directly and calmly at the viewer. This wonderful portrait combines typical elements of the Biedermeier era. What is characteristic is a new sense of reality and a subtle grasp of reality. Great emphasis is placed on barely perceptible human emotions. Here the miniaturist emphasizes in a particularly clever way the personality of the person depicted, which radiates grace and amiability. Even in the small format of miniature painting, the artist manages to capture the nuances of a face and make them appear alive. A wonderful testimony to a bygone era!


Watercolor and gouache / framed / glazed. Dimensions: approx. 6.5 x 8 cm (with frame approx. 12.5x14.2cm). Date of origin around 1825. The antique miniature is in good condition for its age. Wonderful miniature technology! The old original miniature frame is also in good used condition, the wood is stable, not wormy, not brittle.
