Description: MASTERFUL 18TH CENTURY ANTIQUE WOMAN PORTRAIT IMPRESSIONIST OIL PAINTING ON CANVAS. (CIRCA 1750s). THIS WORK DEPICTS A FAIR-SKINNED WOMAN EXUDING A QUIET ELEGANCE. HER DELICATE FEATURES ARE RENDERED WITH SOFT, METICULOUS BRUSHSTROKES GLOWING AGAINST A MUTED BACKGROUND. SHE WEARS A RICH MAROON OVERCOAT, ITS VELVETY TEXTURE SUGGESTED THROUGH LAYERS OF DEEP BURGUNDY. HER HAIR IS PARTED NEATLY IN THE MIDDLE AND PULLED BACK, FRAMING HER FACE WITH UNDERSTATED SOPHISTICATION. THE BLEND OF REALISM AND IMPRESSIONIST TECHNIQUES IMBULE THE PORTRAIT WITH A HISTORICAL CHARM AND EXPRESSIVE QUALITY. THE DETAILS ARE SPOT-ON AND AMAZING. IT APPEARS TO BE UNSIGNED. IT’S WELL OVER 200 YEARS OLD. IT’S IN GOOD CONDITION CONSIDERING ITS AGE. IT WAS RESTRETCHED ONTO A LATER CANVAS AT SOME POINT. THERE’S CRAQUELURE THROUGHOUT AS SHOWN. IT DOES NOT DETRACT FROM ITS BEAUTY IN ANY WAY. DIMENSIONS WITH THE FRAME: 36” H x 32” W. DIMENSIONS WITHOUT THE FRAME: 26” W x 31” H
