These tiny masterpieces offer a window into the past, showcasing the skill and creativity of their unknown creators. One such example is "Woman with a Tambourine, in Neoclassical Costume, " a mid to late 19th-century piece that transports us to an era defined by elegance and grace. The delicate brushstrokes bring this mysterious woman to life, her tambourine adding an air of intrigue. Rosalba Carriera's "Woman with a Dog" from 1710-1720 showcases the artist's talent for capturing both human subjects and their beloved pets. This miniature radiates warmth as we witness the bond between woman and dog frozen in time. Richard Sackville comes alive through watercolor on vellum on card in his 1616 miniature. The intricate details reveal his status and character, allowing us to glimpse into his world centuries later. Samuel Hallifax, Bishop of Gloucester from 1733-90, is immortalized through watercolor on ivory. This delicate medium brings out every nuance of his expression, reminding us of his importance during that period.
