Lot description - from the online catalogue*

Provenance:
Donated by the artist
Notes:
Kari Serrao is a Toronto-based, encaustic artist. Her exquisitely-detailed artworks are reminiscent of Baroque, Tudor and Elizabethan painted portraits. The distinct difference is that Kari uses animals and birds as her muse.

"The Duchess stares back at the viewer with a somewhat come-hither glance. She is proud while being humble, fierce yet gentle and through it all, majestic."
Most realised prices include the Buyer's Premium of 18-25%, but not the HST/GST Tax.
