AN ORIGINAL 19TH CENTURY PORTRAIT OIL PAINTING OF A YOUNG BOY<P>
A beautiful and well-executed 19th century portrait painting of a young boy. Probably Dutch, this boy carries a large leather-bound book under his right arm, as he views the observer on his right with a certain detached curiousity, not quite smiling as he proceeds on his way. His wavy blond hair is tied and drawn back into a pony tail, and he wears a large, wide-brimmed hat and red velvet coat. His beautifully painted face catches the light perfectly and reveals his lovely deep blue eyes and the perfectly smooth skin of a child. Colors are subdued and typical of 19th century oil paintings. The paint itself shows crackling due to age, but retains its integrity. <p>
Condition is very good considering its age (see photographs for detail). This painting appears to be unsigned. The frame is contemporary and made of molded plastic to give the appearance of antique wood. This attractive painting is 17.5 inches high by 15.5 inches wide including frame, and probably Dutch or Germanic in origin.
