Artist, Florentine, 1727 - 1815

The image displays a portrait of a person from the upper body up, facing forward with a slight tilt of the head. The person has a smooth complexion, arched eyebrows, and lips curved into a gentle smile. Their hair is styled in tight curls swept back into an updo with a decorative headpiece made of pearls. Two necklaces are visible around the person's neck: one made of pearls and the other intricately designed with floral motifs and a large ornate pendant. The background consists of a simple textured pattern that enhances the focus on the person's hairstyle and jewelry.
