Snuffbox with portrait of a woman 1775–76 Nicolas Marguerit The miniature is set in the lid of a gold-and-enamel box made by Nicolas Marguerit (master 1763, working to about 1790) in Paris in 1775–76. The box bears five marks, among them the maker’s mark NM and the Paris mark for 1775–76. Although the miniature is contemporaneous with the box, it does not appear to be original to portrait is probably of the same date as the box; thus it was painted, presumably in France, a year or two before Hurter settled in Snuffbox with portrait of a woman 196981
