Box with portrait of a woman

Miniature attributed to Johann Heinrich Hurter Swiss

Not on view

The attribution to Hurter was suggested in 1977 by Edwin Boucher. Although the enamel is unsigned, comparison with 32.75.46 appears to justify the attribution (there is, however, no record of a visit by Hurter to Denmark).
