Titled "Memory of Goya," this classical-style portrait is a sophisticated homage to Francisco Goya’s 1805 masterpiece, Portrait of Doña Isabel de Porcel. Masterfully rendered on canvas-textured board, the piece showcases LeBailly’s signature ability to blend historical European influences with modern Northwest artistry. The work is housed in its original, heavily ornamented gilded frame and retains the artist's personal business card and original gallery markings on the reverse, providing excellent provenance for collectors.

Condition: Excellent Painting Condition / Fair to Good Vintage Frame. The original oil-on-board portrait is in near-pristine condition, featuring stable pigments and masterful brushwork. The grand, ornate gilt frame shows an authentic aged patina, including several structural cracks at the mitered joints and small plaster chips to the decorative scrollwork, which contribute to a sought-after "shabby chic" or distressed antique character.

A masterful marriage of old-world grandeur and 20th-century artistic legacy, this "Memory of Goya" is a soulful statement piece ready to anchor any traditional or eclectic gallery wall. See less
