GEORG FRIEDRICH ADOLF SCHONER (1774-1841)
Portrait of Lisette Grimm
Oil on canvas, 30 x 23 inches
Signed, identified, and dated 1804 on the verso
(copied on the relining from the original canvas)

ONE does not know who this charming lady was, but it is tempting to speculate that she was somehow related to the story-telling brothers Grimm. Painted in the handsome Neoclassical mode so prevalent throughout Europe during this period, Lisette is a lovely subject, engagingly portrayed.
