Prometheus Antiques has dated this piece to the Regency era.
The work has been done on a Rowney and Forster Flemish panel and indicates a quality professional artist's hand. The sitter is likely to be a nobleman as some information is given on the reverse though it is difficult to decipher. The painting is mounted in a slightly later period gilt frame which works very well with it. The whole has a great period look, is in excellent condition, and is ready to hang. C.1820.
Overall sizes in inches, including frame: 9 3/4 by 11
