    Mid-19th-Century Portrait Of A Gentleman

    A fine mid-19th-century portrait of a dapper gentleman wearing a black coat, white shirt with gold buttons and black necktie.

    During the 1850s, male fashion was inspired by the style of a young Prince Albert. As a result, men often sported an hourglass figure with tightly cinched waists and barrel chests. They also tended to wear tight trousers and waistcoats with high upstanding collars.

    The painting is housed within a 19th-century gilded frame with decorative swept corners.

    Year of creation: c. 1850

    Conservation & History

    We care profoundly about our role as custodians and every piece in the collection has been assessed by our conservator. When required, we undertake professional restoration carefully using reversible techniques and adopt a light touch to retain the aged charm of each work. We also often restore frames rather than replace them as many are original and selected by the artists themselves.
