A striking and evocative original oil on canvas by late Seattle artist Stephen "Steve" B. LeBailly (1947–2024). This intimate study is an artist's "copy" after John Singer Sargent’s iconic 1892 portrait of Lady Agnew of Lochnaw, featuring a stylized, modern gaze against a deep, atmospheric green background. The reverse side features the artist's handwritten title "LADY AGNEW" and signature on the original Grumbacher-branded wooden stretcher bars, adding significant provenance and collector appeal. The piece is housed in a handsome burl-wood style frame that provides a rich, traditional finish to the subject.

Dimensions:
Frame: 12" W x 15" H
Art (Sight): 8.5" W x 11.5" H
Depth: 1"

Provenance:
From a private estate. Steve LeBailly was a prolific Northwest artist whose multi-decade career frequently explored the intersection of nature, history, and travel. This piece highlights his deep appreciation for traditional fine art techniques and masterworks.

Condition:
Excellent Vintage Condition. The oil pigments are bright and stable. The canvas is taut and secure within the frame. The reverse is well-preserved, showcasing the original artist's markings and integrated hanging wire. The burl-style frame is in very good structural condition with only minor, age-appropriate surface wear. Ready for immediate display.

A classic and elegant addition to any interior, this signed original oil painting brings a touch of historic sophistication to a gallery wall or as a standalone focal point. See less
