Description
A portrait painting depicting Edwina Mountbatten, Countess Mountbatten of Burma (née Ashley), executed by Philip Alexius de László. The work portrays the subject from the waist up, featuring dark hair and light eyes, draped in green fabric against a green and yellow-green background. The painting is rendered in a realistic, academic style characteristic of early 20th-century portraiture, appearing to be oil on canvas based on visible brushwork and texture. It is presented in an ornate, gilded wooden frame adorned with foliate or scrollwork motifs. A brass plaque is affixed to the lower center of the frame, identifying the subject and artist as “Lady Mountbatten by Philip de László.”
