Description
Continental School, "Portrait of a Gentleman, Possibly Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart," 1884, oil on canvas, unsigned, dated bottom right, unframed, H.- 21 1/2 in., W.- 18 in.
Condition
Condition is consistent with age. The painting has been relined, which is evident all around the borders. The back of the painting has been reinforced with a wax covering. There are various areas of paint loss, particularly from the top proper left side of the painting to the right of the figure. Additional loss was found along borders, particularly on bottom. On the right side of the painting, there is a large scratch to varnish. Under black light, there are various areas of in-painting that light up throughout the painting, especially around the face (view photos for reference). This painting has been restored but seems to need another round of restoration. A handsome example.
