About the Item

Unknown artist. This painting oil on board laid on heavy weave canvas we believe dated from the third quarter of the 20th Century, around the 1970's. The portrait looks like an elderly lady probably in her late 70's or early 80's, there is a slight ophthalmic deterioration in the left eye lid . The portrait has been claimed to be that of an actress which we have been unable to positively confirm. However the composition sits within a French frame and has an unidentified signature at the lower left side of the picture. This is clearly an accomplished portrait painter and resembles a freer style of the period. We do believe this portrait resembles an actress probably entering the twilight years of her acting career if she is still active at the point of the painted portrait. The signature on the reverse side has no affiliation to the painting. We are marketing this picture as unsigned.
