Original 17th/18th c. Portrait of Gentleman in Knights Armor, Oil on Canvas
This listing is for the original 17th/18th century portrait of a gentleman / nobleman in knights armor pictured above. This portrait depicts a European nobleman wearing his suit of iron plate armor with a fancy white lace scarf. He is also likely wearing a long brown wig. After some research, this may be a portrait of the Duke of Monmouth, who has a couple very similar portraits. The painting appears to be unsigned, and a remnant of an old paper label on the back of the stretcher is illegible. Size: the frame measures about 34.5 inches tall by 30 inches wide. The painting measures about 29.5 inches tall by 25 inches wide. Condition: the painting has an old repair to the back of the canvas and corresponding in-painting around his head as pictured. The painting has the typical, general wear you would expect for a 300 year old work. The painting displays beautifully, especially in light! The painting will be professionally packed to ensure it remains unharmed on its journey to a new home. Feel free to ask any questions! The item “Original 17th/18th c.
