Oil on canvas representing a naked young man sitting on rocks holding a book in his hand, his face slightly in profile, in the distance the sea;
Nice "subject", the man is painted quite realistically, the rocks and the bottom are painted in oil wash, which gives this painting all its poetry, it may be a preparatory painting, indeed the subject is "well" painted and the backgrounds processed quite "fast"
The work is not signed but it is undeniably a "good" 19th century painter.
The canvas is original with a key frame, proof of quality
Beautiful painting, very decorative
