Description: A 19th century Victorian period oval miniature of a woman - water colour painted on card - could be oil, as there is a faint crackle glazing to the surface, indicating some form of thin varnish. The painting is mounted under glass in an oval brass surround set in purple velvet. This is then enclosed in a velvet hinged case. Case and mount generally in very good condition - there is a mark on the inside left fabric, and some general minor age wear. The painting has a few minor foxing spots - one to the nose, one to the left cheek - but is in good condition otherwise. The woman has a black hat or mob cap on her head, with brown hair peeping out from under it. She is wearing black dress - mourning? Whole outer case measures 14.3/4 inches (12cm) x 4 inches (10cm). The painting itself measures with a frame area of all around.
