Old portrait of a woman from the Empire period (circa 1820) 54X64cm

An old oil painting on canvas depicting an elegantly dressed woman holding a small satin bag (reticule) in her hands. In the background, a music stand with sheet music can be seen, suggesting a musical environment and belonging to the cultured bourgeoisie of the early 19th century. The hairstyle features a high, voluminous bun with curls framing the face, typical of the period. The canvas on the frame is neither dated nor signed. The old wooden frame is simple and shows some signs of wear, while the paint has a matte appearance with some traces of time; see the photos. Total dimensions with frame: 54 X 64 cm. A beautiful decorative piece. Careful shipping.
