Description: | Signed: yes Description: It is not known who the sitter may be in this nineteenth-century portrait by the Belgian artist A. Wuffaert. However, from her fine dress, the elaborate table behind her holding her accessories ready for going out in the evening, the heavy brocade curtain and doric column that frame her figure, the viewer learns that she is a beautiful, and upright member of London society, where the portrait was painted. His sitter is depicted as a pillar of the community, both wealthy, and worthy. | Subjects: | portrait | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Wuffaert, Adrianus (Belgian artist, 1804-1873) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8412... | Go to resource |
