Framed Portrait Miniature #15 - Old Lady with Bonnet and Slice
Early 19th-century portrait
Likely dates to Federal or Georgian period (1800-1820)
Watercolor on ivory (vertical cracking and slight warping typical of antique ivory under environmental stress)
Middle-aged to elderly woman in a lace mob cap and dark dress with white fichu typcial attire for women of the early 19th century in Britain and early America
Painting style is rather primitive or "naive" espeically in the facial modeling and brushwork which likely indicates either itinerant or folk portraitist (Common in early American and provincial British portraiture) or amateur hand (possibly painted within the family or locally commissioned)
Simple oval brass mount with fixed hanging ring and what appears to be a velvet-covered backing board
