Century I present to you a superb old painting, oil on wood, representing a seated man, probably a peasant, in a simple and authentic living environment. This portrait full of character exudes great serenity. The details of the face, weathered by time, and the worn clothes bear witness to a life of hard work, contrasting with the tranquility of the scene. The painting is highlighted by a magnificent gilded wooden frame, finely worked, typical of the late 19th or early 20th century. The back of the frame bears the stamp of Blanchet, a house located at 40, Rue Saint-Benoît, Paris, a detail that adds historical value to this work.
