A finely-detailed, hand-painted miniature watercolour portrait depicting a decorated Austrian Officer wearing the breast badges of two orders, in addition to a sheathed sword placed below his left arm. It is set within an oval gilded brass border, retaining an intact glass face, and in turn inset within a wooden frame featuring painted and lacquered tiles. The reverse features a removable backer secured in place with malleable bronze clips, while the frame is topped by a bronzed magnetic metal suspension loop. The portrait is signed “AGRICOLA”, possibly for the noted German-born Austrian portrait and miniature painter Karl Joseph Aloys Agricola (1779-1852). It measures 12 cm (w) x 14 cm (h) inclusive of frame. Demonstrating no notable damage or other condition issues, it remains in an extremely fine condition.
