"Beautiful Portrait Early 19th Delacroix School "young Man" Oil On Wood Framed Circa 1840"
This realistic portrait of a "Young Man" with an expressive look, mustachioed and bearded, young and in a tailcoat on a small wooden panel framed in the first half of the 19th century, around 1840 (Louis Philippe) emanates great. This remarkable little oil is incontestably the mark of a "Great Painter" ... Everything is there: the light, the expression, the sustained look to the left, the wearing of the garment of his high collar and his gray frock coat with a black velvet collar, the calculated, desired blur, creates the mystery, giving a Romantic touch without avoiding the detail. In short, a beautiful little painting of Delacroix's entourage; or perhaps of himself according to my source of purchase and its attribution but not signed. In any case a beautiful and luminous portrait, singular; of a very successful Young Man, well in its frame in good condition and very attractive .... A beautiful piece of historical decoration
