Lot 767
Painting of a Young Man. Artist unknown. Oil on canvas, 8 x 11". Some loss of painted surface at top left corner, several small pinholes at edges, one scrape at left side of subject, a faint abrasion across the center of the portrait, tiny spots of paint loss at top and bottom edges, stretcher bar marks. Overall, fair to good condition.
A distinguished young man in early Victorian dress (probably 1840s) graces this ¾ length portrait. A rich red background and dark clothing accentuate the fine features of the subject and the gravity of his stance. A nice piece with unfortunate damage.
Estimated Value $100-UP.
