18th Century English School - Portrait of an Aristocrat, Oil on canvas, 18th century
Oil on canvas on tablex support. Dimensions: 68 x 58 cm. Portrait of an aristocrat from the 18th century English School. The central figure is a high society gentleman, masterfully captured in a relaxed but dignified pose. The aristocrat wears a luxurious blue suit with gold embroidery and a fine lace shirt that highlights his status. The face, with serene and elegant features, is slightly flushed, providing a sense of life and naturalness. The softly diffused lighting highlights the textures of the fabric and the complexion, while the neutral background allows the viewer to concentrate on the expression of the portrayed person and the meticulously worked details of his clothing. This portrait reflects the aesthetic and social canons of 18th century England, a period marked by the wealth and expansion of the British Empire.
