This authentic, hand-painted, original Oil Painting, presumably 18th century, presents a quietly worn visage caught within a deeply crackled surface. The visible portion shows a dark, muted palette with a somber face emerging from layered, textured paint. Close inspection reveals visible brushwork and raised craquelure that gives the piece a tactile, lived-in character. One of a kind, this work carries the direct presence of the artist’s hand and a richly aged paint surface that will stand out in a collector’s cabinet or gallery. Presumably 18th century . The painting measures 26 × 33 cm (10.2 × 13.0 inches) (framed, if shown) and weighs: 0.8 kg (1.8 lbs). If you see a frame in the pictures, it comes with the artwork :)
