About the Item

Attractive antique pastel portrait of a gentleman. He can be an instant ancestor! 1810-1830 and in a period, likely original frame. Frame is distressed (which some pay extra for)... there are chipping, scratches and wear typical of two hundred years of unrestored or conserved and used. The charcoal is quite nicer than typical and his visage is bright and attractive. Modest wear overall, but it's behind glass, which appears to have significantly helped preserve this one. I did not remove from the glass because the charcoal appears to be laid down and likely pasted to the backing board, so there isn't a way to examine the back of the charcoal short conservation removal and analysis. A picture of the back is provided. Enjoy shopping on 1stDibs... where vetted vendors offer material not easily found anywhere else!
