French School 19th Century, Portrait of a young man, 1891, signed and dated

1891

About the Item

French School of the 19th century Portrait of a young man, 1891 Signed (illegible) and dated 91 on the lower right Oil on canvas 46 x 38 cm Framed 52 x 44 In good condition, recently cleaned some minor restorations visible under UV light, stretched on an new stretcher The signature on this fine impressionist portrait has unfortunately not been deciphered at this stage, but the touch and mastery denote an original artistic personality. Very energetic and self-confident, as can be seen from the vigorous way in which he signed. The question arises as to whether it could be a self-portrait by the artist. The pose and the gaze suggest this, as does the relative blurriness of the hand, which could have been busy drawing. In any case, One has all the clues.

French Romantic School, 19th Century, Portrait of a man, oil on paper
Located in Paris, FR
French Romantic School, 19th Century Portrait of a man, a selfportrait ? oil on paper 17.5 x 12 cm oval Framed under glass : 43 x 34.5 cm This rather mysterious portrait is perhaps a self-portrait of the artist who painted it. This is suggested by the three-quarter pose and the gaze fixed on the viewer. What this man seems to be staring at is himself. Similarly, the model's appearance is reminiscent of the image of the romantic, bohemian, tortured artist. It's also very interesting that he used a range of dark colours to reinforce this idea of melancholy. It has been suggested that this small oil on paper is close to the art of François Bonvin (1817-1887) and Théodule Ribot...
