- Portrait of an actor, half length
oil on canvas

Condition
The canvas has a glue relining in good condition though the surface has perhaps been a little pressed in the relining. The paint surface is in good condition, the colors and detail are well retained. There is a little abrasion in the background to areas where it was thinly painted. Inspection under UV is impeded by an uneven, milky varnish. There appears to be some minor retouching in the background and cloak. The painting does not require further work and is ready to hang in its present state.
Offered in a carved gilt wood frame.
