Portrait of a Young Boy Gold Silver & Bronze technically faultless and effortlessly stretching

technically faultless and effortlessly stretching Mabel’s talents as a miniature painter to a more domestic scale

so it is offered on the merits of the painting

with a wry look and something of a military demeanour

a superb quality portrait by an unknown artist from the second half of the eighteenth century

Portrait of a Young Boy Gold Silver & Bronze technically faultless and effortlessly stretching"This little chap I was tempted to call the Young Jockey for obvious reasons, but he is likely to be a student in traditional dress, possibly from the Varmland region of Sweden. It demonstrates another dimension to the artists talents and perhaps a sense of humour, I think hed be a joy to live with on the wall." Matthew Hall
