Antique Miniature Watercolour, Edwardian Portrait

This is a charming early 20th-century miniature watercolour painting presented in a small period brass frame with a decorative beaded border. The artwork depicts a graceful young woman dressed in a soft blue gown, her long, auburn hair flowing behind her. She is shown in a gentle, whimsical moment, holding a white fan aloft as she gazes upward toward a delicate butterfly fluttering above. The scene is set against a light, neutral background with a few white blossoms and golden-brown leaves to the right, adding a touch of natural elegance. The artist’s soft brushwork and use of muted pastels give the composition a romantic, ethereal quality typical of Edwardian charm. The heavy brass frame, with its aged patina and classic studded design, complements the period aesthetic beautifully, lending the piece both warmth and authenticity. This watercolour embodies the light, sentimental style popular in early 20th-century decorative art.
