This exquisite miniature painting is a captivating portrait of Peter Oliver (1594-1648), a renowned artist specializing in miniatures during the English Baroque period. Born as the son of the distinguished artist Isaac Oliver, Peter followed in his father's footsteps and became a master of the miniature art form. Peter Oliver's career flourished during the early 17th century, a time when miniature portraits gained immense popularity among the aristocracy and the wealthy.
