Description

▾

Follower of Louis Tocqué (French, 1696-1772)
Portrait of a Lady in Blue-Green Silk
Oil on canvas

Unsigned. 20 x 16 inches (51 x 41 cm), the frame 24 x 20 inches (61 x 51 cm). Gilt wood frame with a dark liner. Relined, with small paint losses and old restorations.

The silk is painted with a freedom the face never gets. The gown is blue-green scattered with small flowers, open over a white stomacher with a pink rose pinned at the breast, and the sleeves finish in falls of lace.

She is turned three quarters against a plain brown ground, her powdered hair dressed high under a small lace cap tied with a white bow. A single string of pearls lies at the throat. One hand holds a closed fan against the skirt, and behind her left shoulder shows the studded red back of a chair.

GoodThis painting

Stable. Signs of age or earlier restoration are visible on close inspection, such as small retouches or a slightly yellowed varnish. The overall appearance is intact.

Other grades

Very good

Stable. Only minor, old retouches or very small losses, not distracting at normal viewing distance. The canvas may have been relined or cleaned in the past.

Fair

Stable and ready to hang, but wear or earlier restoration is noticeable at normal viewing distance, such as visible retouching, a discoloured varnish or scattered small losses.

Needs conservation

Visible damage a conservator should treat, such as flaking, a tear, larger losses or heavy old repaint. Every issue is shown in the photographs.
