Miniatures

Please notice all persons painted  have red hair.

All the pictures shown in this post are miniatures.

Some of them are for sale on E-bay or in German auction sites.

I don't know the name of most of the artists .

If any of the names shows up I'll add them in the future

Some of the Portraits are real portraits, but many are copies of old paintings 

or just  pretty invented faces.

It takes time to find all the names so if you are aware of any please help!

This one I love!
Few Miniatures are painted in front of the sitter.
This is just wonderful , how she shows of with all her finest jewelry, double chins,
and  the fantastic hair, even the small roses, which
weigh up all the blue in the picture.

A very fine little Miniature
Look the woman wears  a Turkish Ottoman  Cape.
I have a weakness for Ottoman textiles.

Copy after Greuze?

Love this one too!
Specially portraits where the sitter and painter were not afraid to show character !
Look how his hair is combed up and the soft smile and vanity.
It's a portrait that makes you happy.

This portrait is exelent ! 

Please write to me if you know any of the artists who made this miniatures
Thanks
