A late 19th-century cabinet-sized oil on chamfered mahogany panel showing an elegant interior with a maid-servant contemplating a copy of the Venus de Milo. Signed lower left, "E. David" for Emile-François David (Swiss, 1824-1894), painted circa 1870. Additionally inscribed verso with artist information. Emile-François David first studied at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Geneva and, later, with Charles Gleyre in Paris. In 1898, he moved to Italy where he lived and painted in Capri and where his palette became lightened by the Mediterranean sunlight. Over the course of a long career, David exhibited widely and with success and is well listed in all relevant art bibliographies including Benezit's Dictionary of Artists and Gerald Shurr's 'Les Petits Maitres de la Peinture, 1820-1920', (Editions de l'Amateur, Paris, 1979). The artist's work is held in the permanent collections of numerous European museums including Geneva, Lausanne and Neuchâtel. Displayed in a carved giltwood frame. Frame: 12.5''L x 1.25"D x 14.5"H.

This one was a bit difficult to date and the origin was used in Finland. This could be a real cute short top over a regency dress. And Yes, wool print would be nice. Mathilda Rotkirch was a Finnish painter born on July 28, 1813, in Borgå, Finland. She is often recognized as the first female artist in Finland, known for her portrait paintings. Rotkirch studied art in Stockholm with Johan Gustaf Sandberg and Robert Wilhelm Ekman in the spring of 1833. She furthered her studies at the Royal Swedish Academy of Arts from 1833 to 1838. In 1840–1841, she embarked on a study trip through Europe with artist Sophie Aminoff and her husband Carl Reuterskiöld, visiting various cities such as Lübeck, Hamburg, Kassel, Strasbourg, Bern, Geneva, Milan, and Paris. In Paris, she studied under the Swedish painter Per Wickenberg. Tragically, Mathilda Rotkirch passed away in Turku in 1842 at the young age of 28 due to a lung ailment. She was laid to rest in the family graveyard at Näsebacken near Porvoo. Despite her short life, Rotkirch’s work was exhibited posthumously in Finland in 1847. Her paintings are held at prestigious institutions like Ateneum and Cygnaeus Gallery.
