Young Woman in Pink Satin Dress, wearing a ribbon and pearl choker, circa 1770, not apparently signed, oil on canvas, 27 x 24-1/2 in.; modern black painted frame, 32 x 29 in.

Note: The feigned spandrel, landscape, and attention to elegant details in the jewelry and gown, suggest this painting may be influenced by the work of Joseph (Jonathan) Blackburn (Massachusetts/New Hampshire/England, circa 1730-1778).

Provenance: Estate of Joe Kindig, III

Condition

lined with linen, restretched on 19th century pine stretcher, crackle throughout, surface dirt, some light retouch mostly in tree left; frame with light wear
