{"product_id":"antique-french-portrait-of-a-young-woman-06965","title":"Antique French Portrait of a Young Woman in Purple, Gold Framed","description":"\u003cp\u003eA wonderfully elegant large French portrait dating from circa 1880, depicting a young woman seated on a stone bench in a leafy garden at tea time. Dressed in a beautiful lavender gown and surrounded by carefully chosen details, including her straw hat, parasol and a small bouquet of flowers, the painting has all the charm and refinement of late 19th-century Parisian portraiture. It is presented in a substantial antique gilt frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeveral details give the portrait a particularly appealing sense of narrative. Beside her rests a straw hat decorated with a dark ribbon, while a pale parasol or folded accessory hangs over the stonework below. At her feet lies a small bouquet of freshly gathered flowers, suggesting an afternoon spent walking in the garden before sitting for tea and the portrait. The combination of fashionable dress, garden setting and carefully arranged personal accessories gives the painting the character of Parisian society portraiture of the late 19th century, when increasingly relaxed outdoor settings offered an alternative to the formality of traditional studio portraits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGood antique condition with age-related surface character consistent with its period. The substantial antique gilt frame retains a beautiful historic patina with expected rubbing, marks and areas of wear and loss to the gilded surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrench \/ Parisian School\u003cbr\u003eCirca 1880\u003cbr\u003eOil painting\u003cbr\u003ePortrait of a young woman in a garden\u003cbr\u003eArtist currently unidentified\u003cbr\u003eLarge antique gilt frame\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizing Incl Frame:\u003cbr\u003eHeight: 25.20 inch (64cm)\u003cbr\u003eWidth: 22.05 inch (56cm)\u003cbr\u003eDepth: 3.15 inch (8cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizing Painting:\u003cbr\u003eHeight: 17.91 inch (45.5cm)\u003cbr\u003eWidth: 14.76 inch (37.5cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFREE International Shipping\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInsurance:\u003cbr\u003eAll products are shipped in good boxes and very well packaged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll products are shipped fully insured for international shipping.
