ROSS Hugh (1800-1873), PORTRAIT MINIATURE OF LADY GEORGE HILL
Beautiful portrait signed inside : Painted by Hugh Ross , and identified on reverse : Lady George Hill. Hugh Ross was the brother of Sir William Charles Ross, both painters in miniature. William became official painter of the court, Hugh exposed to Royal Academy from 1814 till 1845. Both brothers exposed from the age of 14 years. This work makes Schidloff lie, the quality is equal to that of William's works, the returned of complexions and the master's degree of colors give the illusion of a miniature onto enamel.TECHNIQUE:
