- Lot Description
Portrait of a Gentleman with Powdered Wig
English, early 18th century. Oil on canvas, housed in a gilt frame. Half-length portrait of a gentleman in powdered wig, black jacket and white stock, unsigned; 28.5 x 23.25 in. (sight).Condition
The canvas underwent some restoration: it was trimmed, relined and varnished. There is an apparent tear repair in the upper left portion of the portrait, just left of the top of the sitter's head, about 4 in. long. There is also evidence of craquelure evenly distributed throughout, which was stopped with the relining process. There is very little in-painting, just a couple of spots on the face of the sitter. Finally, there is paint loss all along the rabbet lines.
