Artist
D. B.
French, b. 1812
D. B. is a French artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
D. B. painted in miniature, on slivers of ivory small enough to fit inside a locket. Officers in crisp coats stare straight out, faces caught mid-blink as if just interrupted. In Portrait of an Officer, the light bounces off the gold braid without losing a single thread.
