2806 European School (18th Century) – Portrait of a Woman in Profile – Drawing – Watercolour with Ink (1700s)

This portrait of a noblewoman in profile is one of four original 18th-century watercolour and ink drawings attributed to the European school, likely from Italy. The figure is depicted with an elaborate hairstyle adorned with a rosette, a pearl choker, and a finely detailed dress with leaf-like ruffles. The drawing bears the inscription "Bucelli" and showcases a refined approach to facial structure and costume ornamentation. This sheet is part of a larger set that includes additional portraits of men, each annotated with handwritten names such as "Franchi," "Bonamici Carlo," "Orelio," and "Lepage Giuseppe."
