Antique French portrait of a military officer with sword

£750.00
Antique French portrait of a military officer with sword. French, dated 1849. Signed by the artist but tricky to decipher signature. Oil on canvas. Elaborate gilt gesso frame. Depicts a gentleman, possibly a military officer, holding a sword. Size of frame: 20 x 16.5 inches; Size of canvas: 14 x 10.5 inches; Size of front portrait aperture: 13.5 x 10.25 inches. Weight: 2.1 kg (allow 6 kg volumetric weight once packed). Tatty condition, commensurate with age - various superficial marks & scratches, craquelure and some knocks to and pieces missing from gesso frame but all part of its charm and character. The antique wood of this item has had a minor woodworm infestation at some point in its long life. However, this has now been specially treated to eradicate. Priced accordingly. Best described as shabby chic. This item is obviously delicate and the gesso frame fragile. Therefore, whilst every care will be taken to pack this item extremely well, I cannot guarantee that some pieces of plaster will not become fragmented and dislodged. Please understand this before committing to buy and it will need to be understood that the buyer accepts this risk if having the item delivered by courier. No refunds will be available for this reason nor can the item be returned.
