AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This austere oil portrait on canvas, dated 1921 and signed Giannattasio, captures the figure of a man in a dark formal suit and tie, with a direct gaze and a thick mustache. The artist employs a traditional painting technique, highlighting the subject against a dark background that enhances the brightness of the face and the white collar. The work is presented in a rich gilded frame, finely carved with floral and geometric motifs, emphasizing its importance and highlighting its vintage elegance.
The painting is hand-signed by the artist at the bottom front 'Giannattasio 1921' as per the photo.
The dimensions of the canvas are: 75x60 cm.
The dimensions of the frame surrounding the painting are 97x82 cm.
The painting was purchased from a private collector and has not been restored or retouched in any way.
The painting will be shipped without glass for safety reasons, but it is possible to request that it be kept; in this case, the seller does not assume responsibility for any damages caused by possible breakage during transport.
The painting will be shipped insured, with professional packaging and traced shipping.
