19th-century Portrait of a French Officer, Oil on Canvas

19th century
Description

A characterful 19th-century portrait of a French officer with a determined expression. Clearly he means business.

I wonder how the artist arrived at the point whereby they decided to give this gentleman such a steely look? Perhaps they painted exactly what they saw or did the officer insist upon it?

If you can share any information relating to the uniform, do let us know.

Overall size: 20” x 24½” / 51cm x 62cm

Year of creation: c. 1860

Provenance: France

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.
