Beautiful pastel portrait of a handsome man with moustache, a superb rendering by a 19th-century itinerant artist, unsigned. The execution of this is remarkable, akin to a fine 19th-century portrait miniature, with a soft glow. Hails from an estate sale in Maine. Drawn on board, under glass, and with a later bronzed wood frame. Portrait measures 11.5” by 9”, with total dimensions with frame 17.75” by 15.25”. In excellent condition save for small chips to the frame at the corners.
