Good Sir 1800s painting 5" x 9" / 3219th century French School oil on canvas. The canvas is smooth to the touch. A half length profile portrait of a man in a suit with a thick gray moustache. The look is distant and the expression is serious. The tones are dark as often in commissioned portraits of the French bourgeoisie of the 19th century. The quality of this portrait is notable upon close inspection in his skin tone, his jacket and, of course, his moustache. Overall size: 16. 1" x
