Discovered in the south of france, this enigmatic portrait captivates with its quiet intensity and painterly confidence. Though unsigned, the quality of the work speaks for itself: confident brushwork, a refined palette, and a compelling composition that draws the viewer in. There’s something quietly magnetic about the subject’s steady gaze — serious, introspective, and perhaps even unresolved. Could it be a self-portrait? a loved one remembered? the mystery only adds to its allure. The viewer may be particularly drawn to this painting’s balance of colour - energetic blues, slight streaks of red contrast with a lighter, yellowish-brown background. It’s a work full of character, charm, and emotional resonance — a conversation starter for any setting. The painting is in good overall condition and has been newly framed with a linen slip and glazed with anti-reflective glass.
