A Qajar-Style Painted Portrait of a Dancing Lady, 20th Century.
A vibrant Qajar-style portrait depicting a dancing lady dressed in a richly coloured ensemble. She is shown wearing a fitted blue bodice with white lace-trimmed cuffs and collar, paired with a flowing red skirt decorated with paisley motifs and a broad embellished hem. A teal sash is tied elegantly around her waist, and she holds a round tambourine in one hand. Her long dark hair cascades behind her, framed by a bejewelled crown-like headpiece matching the lace ornamentation along her costume. The background features patterned wall panels in warm green and gold tones, with repeating geometric and floral designs enhancing the composition. The lower section displays stylised floral motifs in teal and brown, complementing the ornate setting.
Approximately 112 x 74cm
Provenance: Private collection from a NW London gentleman.
