Big is better, or is it.  Big is impressive, big is formidable and big is awe inspiring.  But sometimes big can work against a painting.  For some paintings that depend on intimacy or a stillness, large just won't cut it.  For those pieces, small is the recipe for success.

These ones always makes me very curious if the owner of the portrait did have it as a locket, or if it was in their home. Is that something that people want to know? I would guess the dirt and grime could be tested to see where it came from or consists of.... but maybe that's something one doesn't want to know really... ?

I've always loved miniatures, but I'm used to seeing them as mementos of a loved one. I am very curious about the type of person who would want a miniature of their bishop!

Likely someone from a clerical family or a very pious person who had known the bishop as their parish priest. My father was an Episcopal priest, so I got to know several bishops on a personal level, and would dearly love to have a miniature of one of them who the whole family loved dearly.
