Oil on Canvas relined to canvas

38 x 20½ Inches

Framed Dimensions: 24½ H x 2½ D x 41 W Inches

 

A substantial, mid-seventeenth century oil showing a group of men assembled in a neo-classical landscape beside a placid river; a lyrical and dynamic figural work showing both fine conceptual sweep and great attention to detail. This eloquent masterwork has been preserved in very good condition with restoration to less than 5% of the surface and confined to secondary areas. It retains a fine and antique carved gilt-wood frame.
