Fragment Of Oil On Canvas, Profile Portrait Of A Young Man, In A White Tondo. Early 19th Century
Interesting small oil on canvas, probably a fragment of a larger canvas, profile portrait in white tondo, of a young man with medium-length hair, very romantic.
The tondo resembles a plaster proof, in semi-relief, of a medal. It stands out well against the very dark background. A yellow flower in the lower left-hand corner suggests that this portrait is a fragment of a larger canvas. The profile in relief is lit from the left, and the shadows are well cast. The canvas is glued to a small, antique wooden plaque, itself trimmed on the back with a piece of dark brown morocco, a replacement for a coffret top?
France, 19th century, early Romantic period.
