"Black Dress With Flounced Collar: A Pair Of Miniature Profile Portraits" is a notable work by Edwin Plummer, an American artist recognized for his contributions to miniature portraiture in the early 19th century. Plummer, who was active primarily in the 1830s and 1840s, is celebrated for his meticulous attention to detail and his ability to capture the delicate features and personalities of his subjects within a small format. This particular pair of portraits exemplifies his skill in rendering fine details and textures, such as the intricate flounced collar of the black dress worn by the female subject.

The portraits are executed in watercolor on ivory, a common medium for miniatures of that period, which allowed for a smooth surface and fine detail work. The use of ivory also contributed to the luminosity and depth of the colors, enhancing the lifelike quality of the portraits. Plummer's technique involved delicate brushwork and a keen eye for the subtleties of light and shadow, which brought a three-dimensional quality to the miniature profiles.

The subjects of the portraits remain unidentified, but their attire and styling provide valuable insights into the fashion and social norms of the era. The black dress with its flounced collar is indicative of the period's fashion, reflecting both the modesty and elegance expected of women in the early 19th century. The male subject, typically depicted in a corresponding profile, would likely be dressed in formal attire, complementing the female subject and suggesting a relationship between the two, possibly as a married couple or close relatives.

These miniature portraits not only serve as personal mementos but also as historical documents, offering a glimpse into the sartorial and cultural context of the time. Edwin Plummer's work, including "Black Dress With Flounced Collar: A Pair Of Miniature Profile Portraits," continues to be appreciated for its artistic merit and its contribution to the preservation of early American portraiture.
