This miniature was executed about 1800 in the technique "verre-fixe" (or "fixe sous verre" meaning fixed under glass), which is an old process where the painting (oil on thin canvas) is applied to the back of a glass pane in a way for the picture to be seen from the other side. It strongly resembles works of French artist Pierre Louis Meunier whose group of similiar miniatures one can see in Museum "Pavlovsk" by St.Petersburg (see our images nr.6-7).

Pierre Louis Meunier was born in ca. 1780 in Alencon, Normandy and is mentioned in Paris between 1801-1810. He was a pupil of G. Malbeste. Works of his are on display in Museum of Cherbourg and (as said above) in Museum "Pavlovsk".
