Portrait Of A Young Man


This charming late 19th-century German oil painting depicts a young scholar standing before an expansive lake with distant hills and castle. He’s wearing a dark suit with a blue bow tie and carrying a hat.

The identity of this young chap is unknown but the topography is reminiscent of Bavaria. He’s portrayed rather confidently so perhaps he’s the heir of an important estate.

Held in a gilt frame.
