Oval head and part-shoulders miniature of an unidentified lady - probably still in her teens or very early 20s - in an oval gilt metal suspension locket. The watercolour includes some bodycolour (gouache). The sitter is turned slightly to her right looking out at the viewer. She wears a blue low-cut gown with a lace edge to the decolletage and a choker of pearls round the neck. Her dark hair is piled up with a much longer string of pearls woven through it. To the right in the background is part of a grey circular shape, not easily identifiable.

An inscription on the reverse of this item reads 'Faulkenor Collection' [sic] and it was presented by the Misses Trotter in December 1944 with other items relating to Captain Robert Faulknor (1763-95) who was killed commanding the 'Blanche' while taking the French 'Pique' off Guadeloupe on 4 January of the latter year. It came with MNT0189, said to show Faulknor himself, though that is also questionable. Faulknor - whose father and grandfather were also Royal Naval captains- died unmarried, so this lady is not his wife even if she is some other relative.
