This elegant 19th-century French oil painting captures the distinguished presence of a gentleman, finely dressed in formal attire. The artist’s delicate brushwork and attention to detail emphasise the subject’s refined expression.
Set against a muted blue-grey background, the portrait exudes a classic realism style, reminiscent of traditional French academic portraiture from the late 19th to early 20th century. The piece is signed in the lower right corner.
Encased in a richly ornate gilded frame with intricate floral and scrollwork motifs - this frame is truly magnificent. Condition appropriate to its age.
