This beautiful hand colored picture is in Brass frame its 2 1/2 " by 2' Tall, on the back is inscribed Presented by Martha Stoddard to Susan Stoffard Don't now what is called or possible year made? Value?
A very nice "portrait miniature"! It would have had glass back and front. Lock of hair in the back section? Nineteenth century, earlier.
Look after it.
Martha Stoddard or Stoffard?
Google that combination of names and you may come up with some information.
The miniature itself deserves a second look, I reckon; even though the case is not in precious metal.
I will look again at the name beautiful writing.
