English School
oil on canvas,
Portrait of Oliver Cromwell,
29 x 23in., framed to the oval
Estimate £300-500

Oil on canvas relined within the past 10 - 20 years or so, canvas remains tight, a fine but stable craquelure showing through much of the paint but now looks a little dirty, housed in an old gilt gesso frame which has seen some old restorations and now has a similar slightly dirty appearance to the work itself.
