Portrait 19th wife around 1850, oil on canvas

Was the 19th oil on canvas. We can date this oil around 1850, later women wear more Silk Ribbon shaped in a tie under a lace collar. Later still the passes of dresses will climb around the neck. So, around 1850, a round young woman, a beautiful look serious and soft, a little mischievous, shared in headbands one hair strand escaped, barely reddened eye shadow mouth painted as at the beginning of the 19th, the neck of embroidered batiste that suggests the delicious red gr Sorrel/opera of the knotted tie, and below the dark hives adorning the chip color, maybe velvet bodice, can be black. Louise he'd look great, Pauline also, but she expects that it is called. She's a real beauty, nobility without vanity, and a sweet presence without being cutesy. Canvas in imperfect condition, with shrapnel, traces, of wear, nicks and gaps. A provisional and hasty repair on the back has can be inspired by the only burst of color of the canvas.
