About the Item

Fantastic oil on panel possibly Dutch school. Looks to be at least 19 century possibly earlier. The scene looks like a very important gentleman or possibly royalty with a scribe taking notes while a third gentleman looks on. The painting is oil on wood panel measuring 15 and three-quarter inches high by 11 and three-quarter inches wide. Fabulous hand carved wooden frame which is at least 19 century and could be original to the painting measures 21 1/2 inches high by 17 1/2 inches wide. it does not appear to be signed on the front, but there is some writing on the right hand bottom corner of the panel. It appears to be in another language and I cannot make it out.
