Description: Painting has had and shows previous restoration. Painting will also need further restoration as over time it has had accrued others areas of loss. Artist: Unknown Medium: oil on canvas later laid to board?- I have never taken the painting out of framing to examine further. To preserve the painting during restoration the painting might have had backing removal then mounted to thick board to preserve artwork. Condition: Previous restoration with touch up and inpainting. Painting also has the following: paint flecks, paint chips, loss, fills, patching? (Only known if taken out of frame), paint loss, toning from age, yellowing, crazing, craquelure, white spots and stains, a couple abrasions-scratches and scuffs marks. Age cracks, probably frame abrasions, alligatoring, possible backing removal and mounted to board, blooming varnish, blanching, crackle, cleavage and inter layer delamination. Painting has several brittle areas and does have surface dust. Frame condition: Visible red stain to upper face of frame, several chips, dings, abrasions, paint loss, dust pockets, grime and staining. Nice patina from age. Needs restoration to repair conditions stated above. Incredibly well done portrait! I had purchased this out of local estate. The previous owners great grandfather was named Hamilton? and I believe worked as a vice president?? That’s about all I can remember from when I got it. Hopefully this tiny bit of information helps with your research. Appears unsigned-no signature to be found on the front-verso is signed on back of board. Signature might be related to previous restoration and is signed in ink with initials only. Dates: exact age is unknown as painting is not dated-looks to be early to mid 19th century. Beautiful antique frame!! Measures: Painting- roughly 18” x 24” Frame: 24.5” x 31.75” x 2.25”d Painting is sold as-is & as shown in images!
