Oil painting on canvas depicting a gentleman

Refined oil painting on canvas depicting an elegant 18th-century gentleman, dressed in a rich dark suit adorned with a lace jabot shirt. The man, with curly and powdered hair in the fashion of the time, is captured in a learned and reflective attitude, sitting at a writing desk with a quill pen in his hand, while he seems intent on writing on a document. The dark background highlights the luminous face and detailed clothing, while the balanced composition and the accuracy in the details of the clothing and furnishings suggest the influence of aristocratic portraiture of the time. Currently, the work needs cleaning, which our professional restorers will provide in the coming days. The indicated price does not include restoration.
