Description from the seller

I am offering for auction a superb early 19th century oil on canvas portrait of a gentleman in his finest clothes and overcoat. Clearly by an excellent artist but the work is unsigned. In its original gilt frame.

The painting measures 74 x 61 cm. The frame is 96 x 84 cm.

Condition of the painting is fairly good. Please view all photos for accurate condition. A couple of marks to canvas. Frame has light wear. Ready to hang.

Please note. Due to the fragile nature of old frames and glass, our shippers do not provide insurance for any damage caused during transit. We go to great lengths to ensure each painting is packed and protected to a very high standard but sadly cannot compensate or refund for any damage occurring to frames or glass during transit. Therefore the frame and any glass is a gift to you with zero value and you are bidding on the artwork only.

Due to Brexit, there are delays at EU customs borders though the situation is improving. Please do not blame me for delays or any customs duty payable. I really appreciate your understanding and patience. Steve.
