The pale architectural or ceremonial background is delicately embellished with raised white detailing, giving the miniature wonderful depth and texture.
The portrait is unsigned, and the identity of the sitter remains unknown.
The oval frame is finished with an elaborate cast foliate crest and fine beaded detailing around the portrait, with its original-style easel support to the reverse.
