This painting shows a close-up of a woman's eye, painted in detail and set in a gold frame. The eye is looking straight ahead, with the eyelid slightly raised. The iris is a dark brown color, and the pupil is small. The frame is round and has a small loop at the top, suggesting it may have been worn as a pendant. The background of the painting is a light color, which helps the eye stand out. To learn more about the artist behind this intricate piece, look up William Charles Ross.
Sir William Charles Ross (3 June 1794 – 20 January 1860) was an English portrait and portrait miniature painter of Scottish descent; early in his career, he was known for historical paintings.
