Marie Euphrosyne Bertschinger

Marie Euphrosyne Bertschinger is recognised for her work as a miniaturist. Her œuvre focuses primarily on portraiture, a genre that allows for the exploration of the finesse and delicacy of miniature painting. Although little detailed information is available about her career, her commitment to this artistic field attests to a practice requiring both technical expertise and a particular sensitivity to the representation of the individual.
Miniatures, often executed on small supports, invite intimate and personal contemplation—characteristics of the art of her time.
