This dapper gentleman has hung in my bedroom gallery for a number of
years, but alas, like most things in my collection, he is being pushed
out by something new to my eyes. He is dressed for evening with
his short waist coat under his jacket with tails. The hounds-tooth
pattern of his trousers is echoed by the checked pattern of the floor.
He holds his top hat and walking stick as he prepares to leave for his
night on the town. His blue eyes are stunning. Watercolor on card,
circa 1840, some browning to the paper. He is housed in a period
mahogany or rosewood veneer half-round profiled frame with gilt liner
that measures 12" x 15 1/2". (#1865) $950 Sale Price $695 |
