This is an early 19th century pastel portrait of an unidentified boy. The portrait is undated, but was probanly painted in the 1830s. It came from a home in The Cathedral Close in Salisbury. Presumably the portait was one of the ancestors of the family. The portrait looks to be the work of an unidentified naive artist. While not a great work of art, it shows the boys clothing in detail. He wears a blue dress with a low neckline and white trim. The dress also has baloon sleeves.
