American, 1840s. Oil on ivory, framed. A nude portrait of a woman in a forest setting, unsigned, with hand-written artist attribution on reverse of paper board on which the ivory panel is laid; 5.25 x 7.75 in. (ivory).
Thomas S. Officer was a miniaturist and portrait painter active during the 1840s and 50s, originally from Pennsylvania. During the 1840s, he worked in Alabama, Virginia, and New York City.
Some warping to the ivory, especially towards the lower left corner, but the painted surface looks intact. The ivory is laid on paper board, glued in the top and bottom left corners.Condition
