19th-century oil on wood panel painting featuring a man drinking in a tavern

About the Item

19th-century oil on wood panel painting featuring a man in a tavern. This oil painting, delicately rendered on a wooden panel, captures a captivating scene from the 19th century. The wood panel is framed in a resplendent gilded frame, although it bears the marks of time, with certain parts of the wood frame missing, revealing the painting's raw edges. The painting itself bears the hallmarks of age, displaying signs of wear and tear that tell the story of its rich history. Upon the wood panel, the portrait of a man comes to life. He is seated, suggesting a setting of a tavern, a place bustling with stories and characters. The man, dressed in the attire of a bygone era, exudes an air of mystery. His eyes, captivating and direct, pierce through the layers of time, engaging the viewer in a silent conversation. In his hands, he holds a cup or tankard, its purpose lost to history, yet adding a touch of intrigue to the composition. The passage of time has not been kind to this artwork. The surface of the painting bears witness to the years it has endured, showing areas where the paint has worn away, while the wear and tear are evident, they do not diminish the overall impact of the artwork; instead, they enhance its authenticity, making it a testament to the passage of time and the enduring power of art. Medium: Oil on wood panel Date: 19th century Dimensions: Height - 29.5 cm; Width - 23.8 cm; Depth - 3.2 cm. ( With frames ) Actual picture size: Height - 23.5 cm; Width - 17.5 cm Weight: 784 grams Frame: Housed within a period-appropriate gilt wooden frame. Condition Report: The effects of time are clearly visible in the wear and tear exhibited on both the painting and its canvas, as illustrated in the provided images. Notably, a portion of the signed date is missing, presumably due to the natural aging process. However, considering the striking resemblance in painting style and scenery to another work by the same artist with a visible date, it can be reasonably inferred that the missing date corresponds to the period of creation, despite being obscured over time.
