Dughetti, Giancarlo - portrait of a young lady

This miniature portrait is signed "G Dughetti Firenze 12 1951". The sitter is not known.

The artist is Giancarlo Dughetti and he was an Italian who exhibited at various places in Italy and on a number of occasions after World War II.

He wrote a book about painting portraits and another about miniatures.

He appears to have painted on ivory and board, as well as on porcelain. 521








Much later - 2015 -  I have been contacted by a kind visitor who has provided some more information and has set up a website in tribute to Giancarlo Dughetti. She writes:

Sono la moglie del pittore Giancarlo Dughetti ( 1931 ---1986 ). Scrivo la presente per informare che ho fatto un blog con le opere di mio marito per tenere vivo il ricordo e far conoscere e divulgare la sua Arte " LA MINIATURA " a chi non ha mai visto una sua Mostra. Istruzioni : andare su Google , scrivere GIANCARLO DUGHETTI . BLOGSPOT.IT appare quadri e miniature .
