French Boulle Miniature Portrait

CA$495.00
Sold Out

This lovely handprinted portrait is of Ms. Grace Elliott.

The Original Artist was Mr. Gainsborough (a typo on the back says Mrs.Gainsborough. ) After much research this is what we found. It was repainted in the mid to late 1800’s by another artist. it is signed but we can not make out the signature.

The portrait is in great shape for its age. There are some light scratches on the glass.

Dimensions aprox- 5 inches wide by 6 inches high

Grace Dalrymple Elliott (c. 1754 – 16 May 1823) was a Scottish courtesan, writer and spy resident in Paris during the French Revolution. She was an eyewitness to events detailed in her memoirs, Journal of my life during the French Revolution (Ma Vie sous la Révolution)published posthumously in 1859.[1][2] She was mistress to the Duke of Orléans and to the future George IV, by whom she is said to have borne an illegitimate daughter. Elliott trafficked correspondence and hid French aristocrats escaping from the French Revolution. She was arrested several times but managed to avoid the guillotine, and was released after the death of Robespierre.
