No. 2747 "Clothilde Got Into a Considerable Amount of the Most Delectable Trouble" Portrait Platter

An original oil portrait of Clothilde on an antique Tirschenreuth German porcelain platter with a gold gilt scalloped border, measuring 15" by 10.25": "Clothilde Got Into a Considerable Amount of the Most Delectable Trouble"; (wire spring plate hanger included).  THE STORY: Inspired by literature, my portraits have novelistic titles that hint at the adventures of their heroines.  THE CHINA: Many of my paintings are set in antique saucers and dishes which not only work as unexpected frames but add a layer of historical narrative on top of the origin story. Each piece has a unique blend, so that some are more romantic, some more exotic, and some more otherworldly.
