A characterful study of a young boy holding a glass of wine, inspired by the work of Renaissance artist Antonio Amorosi (1660-1738). The composition demonstrates the strong contrasts of light and shadow associated with Renaissance portraiture, drawing attention to the boy's expressive features and informal character.
The work has an appealing old-master quality, combining intimate subject matter with careful observation and dramatic chiaroscuro. It is well presented in a dark wood frame with gilt detailing and is inscribed with initials to the lower left, although these are illegible. On board.
Condition
