Lover's Eye Painting on an English Rose Chintz Dish

Lover's Eye miniature paintings were popular in the late 18th and early 19th centuries (Georgian and Regency periods), and were frequently incorporated in rings and lockets. This is a larger, modern version in oil, on a vintage English transferware dish in the "Rose Chintz" pattern by Johnson, Bros.; loop on the back for hanging. 5.1"x1.1".
