A late Georgian gold brooch set with an onyx cameo portrait by Berini. Bust of a noblewoman.
End of 18th century - Beginning of 19th century
Cameo : 22 x 27 mm 5,39 g
Portrait of a noblewoman from the napoleonic period, facing left, signed BERINI (Antonio Berini, 1770-1861) along the neck profile. The portrait bust is characterized by a greek profile, a small mouth and an elaborate hairdo, an can be identified with a member of the Royal Family from the Bourbons (see Effigy of Maria Luisa di Borbone-Parma, Queen Consort of Spain, 1751-1819; Maria Luisa di Borbone, Queen of Etruria and Duchess of Lucca, 1782-1824). The front adorned with a diadem, and two bands on the top, while, on the back, the haidress in a bun net, following the style of the ancient heads. Refined work, soft in the anatomical volumes and careful in the physiognomic research, with a certain expressive elegance.
