Oil on copper 18th century
unframed 16.5 x 18 cm
Size with frame 27/28 cm
Dutch school
Follower of Michiel van Musscher 1645/1705

Charming little portrait painted in oil on copper, depicting a young man with a frank, expressive gaze. The model is seen from three quarters, in an elegant, natural pose, with a beautiful light work on the face. The expression is soft, almost smiling, giving the whole a real presence.
The painting is of high quality, fine and well-preserved, with careful details in the face and hair. The copper support, very popular in the 18th century, lends brilliance to the colors and finesse to the execution.
Painted around 1750-1780, this small portrait on copper reflects the eighteenth-century taste for intimate, sensitive depictions. At a time when the individual was taking a new place in society, these works were often commissioned to mark a key moment in life: the passage to adulthood, a commitment or a family memory. The cabinet format and refined copper support reinforce the personal and precious character of this painting.
The frame in blackened wood and gilded fillets sets off the picture perfectly.
