Description
This intimate 18th-century portrait depicts a gentleman with a powdered wig. The sitter's direct gaze and subtle smile are captured through confident brushwork, with particular attention paid to the delicate lace jabot and the soft modelling of the facial features. Unsigned. On canvas on stretchers.Condition
Signs of wear consistent with age. Discolouration to the surface. Considerable craquelure and light abrasions throughout. Small losses to the paint layer. Some texture to the left edge. Wear to the edges of the canvas. Inspection under UV light reveals minimal overpainting. Overall the artwork is in good condition for its age.
