This exquisite eye miniature, dating back to the late 18th century, features the captivating portrait of Ann Fryer (probable birth year 1768). The miniature, created in the Rococo era, is a testament to the exceptional artistic skills of the unknown artist, believed to be from Britain or possibly Sweden. The intricately detailed work is executed in watercolour and gouache on ivory, showcasing a level of precision and artistry that was highly valued during this period. Ann Fryer's portrait is depicted in a delicate, oval frame, with her expressive eyes taking center stage. Her gaze is fixed intently, capturing the viewer's attention and inviting them into her world. The artist has skillfully rendered the intricacies of the human eye, from the delicate lashes to the iris and pupil, creating an almost lifelike effect. The use of pearls and other decorative elements adds to the opulence of the piece, reflecting the wealth and status of the subject. The intricate pearl detailing on Ann's dress and the ornate frame further enhance the overall beauty and allure of the miniature. The Eye Miniature of Ann Fryer is a rare and fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the lives of the wealthy and fashionable elite of the 18th century.
