Extraordinary Old Master Genre Painting
17th-18th Century - circa 1700
An exquisite old master painting depicting extravagantly dressed man and woman in a striking and inquisitive scene with man standing in the background and statue and a symbolical type figure to their left. Thought provoking subject matter. Unsigned.
The colors are bright and the paint is in good condition considering it's age. There is some craquelures in some areas such as the woman's face. It appears it has been relined, but difficult to tell as it was well done. Under black light shows minor touch up, no more then 5%. An exceptional primitive, historical painting, well executed and striking appeal. We don't come across many like this!
Size: 24x28" unframed.
