Italian or Spanish painter of the 17th century - Portrait of a clergyman

Descriptio Oil on canvas. Dimensions: 80 × 60 cm. Half-length portrait of a clergyman dressed in sober black vestments with a small white collar, depicted frontally against a neutral, dark-toned background. He holds a small, light-bound book in his right hand, while his left rests at his side. The composition focuses the light on the face and hands, with a restrained and austere treatment typical of ecclesiastical portraiture. Due to its age and history of use, this lot may show signs of wear and previous interventions. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, no specialized technical testing has been performed. The absence of any mention of restorations does not guarantee that none exist. You may request additional information before placing a bid. This does not affect the buyer’s statutory rights.
