Portrait of a Young Lady in a Royal Blue Jacket with Ermine Trim, 1820 - 1850
About the object
As a decorative accessory of the depicted lady, the fine royal blue jacket is furnished with an ermine trim. The cool blue contrasts with the warm tones of the surroundings to great effect. The unidentified artist masterfully and vividly captures the flesh tones, hair and fur in fine brushstrokes on an ivory support.
