18th Century English Oil on Canvas Portrait of a Gentleman, C.1750 — Unlined Original Georgian Canvas

18th century
Description

A genuine mid-18th-century English school portrait depicting a gentleman in brown coat and white stock, painted c.1740–1780. Executed in oil on its original hand-woven linen canvas, still on the original Georgian nailed strainer frame (pre-dating keyed stretchers). The painting displays the soft modelling, restrained palette and three-quarter pose characteristic of the Georgian provincial portrait tradition.

The canvas remains unlined with stable age craquelure and even toning. Presented in a later 19th-century veneered frame. Stock number to the top bar is an early gallery or auction inventory mark. A true period portrait of good decorative presence.

Size:

Canvas: 52 × 60 cm

Frame: 67cm high

60.5cm wide

Declaration

Peter Harris Clocks & Militaria has dated this piece to the Georgian era.
