It's carrying two centuries of history. The artist painted this in the late 1700s or early 1800s, but deliberately dressed the young sitter in clothing inspired by portraits from the late 1500s and early 1600s. So you're looking at an artist who was already looking back in time. Then it's housed in this incredible chunky Rococo frame from the late 1800s. It has beautiful craquelure, the panel has gently warped over the centuries, and the frame has honest losses that tell you it's lived a real life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\"\u003eA beautifully timeworn Continental School portrait depicting a young gentleman in late Renaissance-inspired dress, housed in an impressive late 19th-century gilt Rococo frame.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMeasurements\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApproximately 13\" tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApproximately 12\" wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrame depth approximately 2½\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy I Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLate 18th to early 19th century Continental School oil on board\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWonderful old-world palette with luminous complexion and expressive eyes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePainted in the style of late 16th- and early 17th-century portraiture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRich craquelure throughout that beautifully reflects its age\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSubstantial late 19th-century gilt Rococo frame with incredible depth and ornament\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn intimate scale that layers beautifully into bookshelves, cabinets, or gallery walls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProfessionally secured within the frame for stable display\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCondition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAntique condition consistent with age\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal board retains noticeable age-related warping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCraquelure and surface wear throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinor paint losses, primarily near the edges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrame shows expected losses to composition ornament and gilding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStructurally stable and ready to display\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Everly Home Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51049217851559,"sku":null,"price":1850.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/6217\/4631\/files\/IMG_9360_6f6acd7f-e353-4283-b871-227b94cd2dfa.jpg?v=1787432759","url":"https:\/\/everlyhomecollection.com\/products\/framed-oil-of-young-man-boy","provider":"Everly Home Co","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
