Set of Three Early Victorian Silhouette Portraits, Attributed to Peter Skeolan, c.1842

This captivating set of three early Victorian silhouette portraits offers a glimpse into 19th-century artistry and society.

Depicting a gentleman, a lady, and a child, these finely detailed works likely date to around 1842 and represent the height of silhouette portraiture during the Victorian era.

The gentleman’s portrait features a stamp on the reverse: “SKEOLAN Artist, Oldham Street, MANCHESTER,” identifying it as the work of Peter Skeolan, a distinguished silhouette artist of the 1830s and 1840s.

While the other two portraits lack the stamp, it is highly probable they were also created by Skeolan, given their stylistic consistency and shared provenance.

An exquisite choice for collectors or those seeking a distinctive period accent for their home.

The largest portrait measures 27cm tall.
