Beautiful Large Portrait Of A Distinguished Gentleman Wearing 1930s Glasses In His Study (on Canvas)

A rare and beautiful expressive portrait of a bespectacled man posing in his study, legs crossed, wearing breeches and riding boots, this remarkable painting in soft, pastel, and violet tones depicts a man of strong character in the setting of his private study, with a bust of Venus to his right. A large canvas measuring 93 x 73 cm, it is highly decorative and aristocratic. He has a confident bearing, and his direct gaze is not obscured by the glare of his glasses. A pocket square suggests that he is a man of the world, proud of his appearance. The details of this original painting, unvarnished and preserved in an intimate light, the colors, and the curtain with its soft nuances, like his clothing, set the tone. An inspired and beautifully executed work, large in size, its presence is palpable and sets the tone for a chic and sophisticated decor, that of Art Deco and all that it represents. The precise brushstrokes and the light on the glasses affirm the lifelike quality of this highly controlled painting.
