I would say it looks like an amateur artist who might have been more comfortable at the time with drawing rather than painting. There's a tighness...
That's a good thought, and I had it but then... Have you seen it with this weird crackle texture? I also thought the pattern was a bit too swirly,...
Hmm looks like paper to me. It's a copy of Kitagawa Utamaro's portrait of Ohisa of Takashima teashop.
I need some amber experts on this one! :D I can't find another like this guy, other than the portrait is in the style of wax portraits from late...
It's beautiful! I'm glad you left the original color. It's very rich and perfect. All the details are great. Whew it looks like it just barely...
