Sarah Thornely is a 1851 watercolor by H. Carl Schiller, a Biedermeier work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This watercolor painting is a portrait of a woman. She has dark, curly hair and wears a light-colored dress with a pink bow at her neck. The background is a light brown color. The woman's face is the main focus of the painting, and her features are delicately rendered. Her hair is styled in loose curls, and her dress is adorned with intricate details. The painting is a beautiful example of Realism, with its attention to detail and realistic depiction of the subject. If you're interested in learning more about this style, you might want to explore the works of other artists who were part of the Realism movement.
This British artist painted intimate watercolours of sitters in the 1850s, keeping their identities modest and the backgrounds plain.
