Clearly signed and dated 1823, this very good quality miniature shows a mid-aged Austrian aristocratic lady (note her residence castle in the background) cradling her favorite Pomeranian dog.
It is an extremely rare miniature on the current antique market by Viennese artist who was chiefly known as an author of large-scale oil or watercolor portraits (CLICK HERE FOR OTHER WORKS OF THIS ARTIST IN OUR POSSESSION).

Anton Einsle (1801 Vienna - 1871 ibidem) was a very significant Austrian portrait painter of the 19th century. At the age of 13 he began studying at the Vienna Academy and painted his first works on commission at 16. His first portraits in oil and miniatures are known to appear in 1827. His works were represented at all great exhibitions in Vienna from 1830 on. Einsle worked in Prague and Budapest for a few years. He soon became a favourite portrait painter of high aristocracy and royals and was an official portraitist of Kaiser Franz Josef I. Works by Einsle are represented in many museums in Austria and abroad.
