Museum Quality Mid-18th Century Antique French Portrait Miniature in Dore Bronze Frame Diamond facet this lovely piece would beAn exceptional find, a circa 1750 70s French gentleman of the nobility, powdered wig with ponytail and wide black bow at nape of neck. Dignified portrait and the frame exceeds the quality of almost all portrait miniatures of the era.
