Miniature Portrait on Ivory in Bronze frame | Victorian Woman with Dove by F Reynolds

Product Description
Miniature Portrait on Ivory in Bronze frame
Victorian Woman with Dove by F Reynolds

We believe that the miniature portrait with the lady & the dove is Mrs. Mary Nesbitt 1742-1825. The signature is of (Sir) J. Reynolds. The original of this piece is in the Wallace collection but Joshua Reynolds wasn’t known to do miniature portraits. Most likely, the piece was done as a [tribute] to Reynolds work by either a student or done by a similar artist as it’s well done.

Mary Nesbitt was an English upper class socialite and courtesan who mixed in the elevated circles of government and royalty in late 18th century Great Britain. Her home, Norwood House, in Upper Norwood, then Surrey, now South London, became a meeting place for the rich and powerful.
