This is a fabulous and I feel very unique oil on canvas painting of a classical woman in black and white. I absolutely love the talent that is at work here not to mention the shadowing. The use of light is incredibly well done. The subject matter is very interesting too of a classical woman looking up to her left she is very pensive yet her facial features are very well pronounced and defined. As far as I can see it is unsigned. It is housed in a very appropriate and well complementing carved oak wood frame that is very architectural in style. It also has an inner molding that is very decorative that appears to be silver leaf. The canvas stretcher is attached to the back of the frame with hand forged square nails dating the piece to around 1890. The condition of the frame is very good. The painting could use a good cleaning and there are 6 small paint flakes. There is also a small hole in the canvas outside of the painting smaller then the end of a pencil eraser - the stretcher. Overall it measures 16 ¾? square x 1 ¼? deep and the sight size is 11 ½? x 11 3/8?. I think the pictures speak for themselves here ? it is truly elegant and romantic ? quite the piece of art!
