It is the work of a still unknown miniaturist of 2nd half of 1the 18th century, a certain "G... Laurent", whose name is provided only through the aforementioned legend. This small portrait was shown in 1906 at the Berlin exhibition of portrait miniatures (see image nr. 12 with corresponding clips from Thieme-Becker)." |
