We are pleased to present this large early 20th century oil on canvas painting. This stunning portrait of an Edwardian English lady is signed lower left C. B. Prescott and dated 1913, probably by the English painter Charles Barrow PRESCOTT (1870-1932), lacking authentication. This is a fantastic painting in which the woman, in a three-quarter pose, embodies all the characteristics of the early 20th century English upper middle class. The decor surrounding the subject is elegant and refined; a large red velvet armchair creates a perfect contrast with the black dress. On the right, a large and precious potiche vase on a small Louis XV table accentuates the value of the antique furniture. The woman wears a dress and handbag that reflect the fashion of the time. Her social status is underscored by the many gemstone jewels she displays with extreme nonchalance. Under the small table, you can see some books, probably intended to emphasize her interest not only in fashion and jewelry, but also in culture and art. Pictorial quality is evident in the execution of the proportions, in the details and, above all, in the ability to portray the personality of the woman portrayed. Her face is full of expression: a determined look and a faint smile convey a strong and self-confident character, probably a woman who happily accepted her social status, enjoying both material and intellectual pleasures. A wonderful painting that will enchant your guests! If you love antique portraits, you should definitely add this beautiful painting to your collection. The painting is presented in a beautiful recently made gilded wooden frame.
