This miniature portrait, painted by renowned English artist George Engleheart between 1800 and 1810, depicts a man, possibly Mr. De Wolf, in a formal setting. The small size and oval shape are characteristic of portrait miniatures popular during this era, often worn as jewelry or kept as personal mementos. The sitter's refined attire and serious expression convey a sense of social status and gravitas, typical of portraiture intended for private viewing and personal reflection. This intimate portrayal is a testament to Engleheart's mastery of miniature painting, capturing both physical likeness and subtle nuances of character.
