18th Oil Portrait Painting Medical Doctor Physician

Photos

Description

An lovely authentic mid 18th century oil on canvas portrait of a Physician in medicine.

The work depicts the sitter in a brown suit before a shelf of books with an elbow upon a table with papers beneath, the title of which appears to read 'Practical theory on amputation...'. The sitter holds a book in his right hand titled 'Haller', presumably Albrecht von Haller (1708-1777), a Swiss anatomist, physiologist, naturalist, encyclopedist, bibliographer and poet.

There is minor age related fine craquelure as is expected due to age and the painted surface is all stable.

There has been past conservation work undertaken to Reline the existing canvas and this involved renewing the wooden stretchers.

Presented in an antique decorative gilt frame which has a few minor repairs which have now been fully restored and are hardly noticeable.

This is an interesting portrait of good scale, nicely rendered and full of realism and charactor.
