Boilly balances caricature with empathy, creating figures that are expressive without becoming grotesque. As part of the Grimaces series, this work reflects early 19th-century interest in emotion, gender, and character. It pairs exceptionally well with the male expression plates. Condition report: Light overall toning and occasional minor spotting. Good impression. Framing tips: A light wood or muted gold frame with a warm white mat complements the softer palette. Technique: Lithograph with contemporary hand-colouring Maker: Louis-Léopold Boilly, France, published London c.1823–28 See less
