AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Created in 1925 by Giuseppe Montanari, this oil painting is a realistic portrait based on a photograph by Francesco Fidanza of Varese, found on the back of the panel. The work depicts an elderly figure with a dense and tactile brushwork, transposing the photographic pose into a natural setting of hills and a cloudy sky. The figure, dressed in dark, sober clothing, gains a monumental dignity thanks to the contrast with the open landscape, while the substantial gold frame underscores its celebratory value.

The work is hand-signed and dated by the artist at the bottom on the front of the painting, "G. Montanari 925".

Table size: 80x60 cm
Frame size: 90x74 cm

Good condition with defects and minor shortcomings as shown in the photo.
Painting purchased from an Italian private collector.
Shipped without glass (if present) unless otherwise instructed (to be specified as soon as the purchase is made).

Please carefully observe the photographs as they are an integral part of this description. Tracked shipping, including secure packaging, and any customs duties and taxes will be the responsibility of the buyer.
