Henry Martens (1795-1870)
oil on millboard
The Life Guards Band,
Ackermann's label verso
19 x 25in.
Estimate £400-600

Oil on mill board in honest condition, probably has seen a clean in the past but would benefit from fresh attention, very slights scuffing showing in the varnish particularly in the clouds above the heads of the central figures, a little fine but stable craquelure running through the darker tones, apparently unsigned, housed in a old giltwood frame with artist and title plaque, Ackermann's label verso.
