Unknown - portrait of a 19C lady
This miniature portrait is set into the top of a snuffbox. It is in the style of Domenico Bossi, but at present it is thought unlikely to be by him. The sitter is unknown.
The term "historical detective" may sound a little strange, but is the easiest way to express the intent of this research.
