Features delicately stippled in brown and sanguine with touches of blue and yellow, heightened with white, on a thin pale carnation ground; the hair a brown wash with semi-opaque yellow for the curls; collar in white over a grey ground, and the armour in grey/black with white and gold highlights; a plain blue background; on vellum put down on pasteboard.   \r\n \r\n<u>Frame:</u> Early seventeenth-century gold locket, the flat back enamelled with dark green translucent enamel, on a ground divided into eight segments each tooled with radial strokes, within a border of dark blue champlevé enamel (lengths of which are missing). The sides are channelled above the arris and the rounded section above is enamelled also in dark blue on transverse hatching. At the top a channelled loop, partly filled with enamel, bifurcates into divergent wavy and diminishing ribbons. Opposite are three hinge barrels for the missing cover, which has been replaced by modern glass; at the bottom the catch for the former cover has been filed off, and probably also a ring for suspension of a pearl.","artistMakerPerson":[{"name":{"text":"Hoskins, John (I)","id":"A2210"},"association":{"text":"artist","id":"AAT25103"},"note":""}],"artistMakerOrganisations":[],"artistMakerPeople":[],"materials":[{"text":"vellum","id":"x42751"},{"text":"watercolour","id":"AAT15045"}],"techniques":[{"text":"painting","id":"AAT54216"}],"materialsAndTechniques":"Watercolour on vellum put down on pasteboard.","categories":[{"text":"Portraits","id":"THES48906"},{"text":"Paintings","id":"THES48917"}],"styles":[{"text":"English School","id":"x44855"},{"text":"Stuart","id":"AAT21037"}],"collectionCode":{"text":"PDP","id":"THES48595"},"images":["2016JA2731","2016JA2798","2006BD0790","2017JY7638"],"imageResolution":"high","galleryLocations":[{"current":{"text":"LVLF","id":"THES49656"},"free":"","case":"RMC","shelf":"1","box":"C"}],"partTypes":[[{"text":"miniature","id":"AAT33936"}]],"contentWarnings":[{"apprise":"","note":""}],"placesOfOrigin":[{"place":{"text":"England","id":"x28826"},"association":{"text":"painted","id":"x30138"},"note":""}],"productionDates":[{"date":{"text":"ca.1634","earliest":"1629-01-01","latest":"1638-12-31"},"association":{"text":"painted","id":"x30138"},"note":""}],"associatedObjects":[],"creditLine":"Bequeathed by George Salting","dimensions":[{"dimension":"Height","value":"55","unit":"mm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"","note":""},{"dimension":"Width","value":"45","unit":"mm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"","note":""}],"dimensionsNote":"Dimensions taken from John Murdoch <u>Seventeenth-century English Miniatures in the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum</u>.
