Lami, G - portrait of four heads
This miniature portrait is unsigned, but has been atributed to the French artist G E Lami, who is recorded as active from 1808 - 1818. The sitters are unknown, but as their heads are shown in clouds, it is probable that it is a mourning portrait. 944

Seeking information to expand historical knowledge and finding, surprisingly often, "conventional wisdom" needs revision
