The large oil on canvas portrait shows a young man seated in a red upholstered carved chair with column and windowed landscape with water in background. The right corner with a curtain swag and dropped tassels. The man wears a black topcoat, white vest and blue bow tie. A gold watch chain hangs from his vest and he has a small red stone pinky ring. On his lap he has a blue cap with a gold button which probably indicates he is a ship’s captain. Signed lower left “Seymour”. On verso of the original canvas is a multi-line inscription which is very hard to decipher but appears to have the artist’s name “Seymour”. Housed in a decorative frame which has finish losses. SIZE: 39″ x 34″. Overall: 46-1/2″ x 41-1/2″. CONDITION: Puncture hole at center, some scuff losses in face, unrestored with edge chipping. 52115-8 (2,000-3,000)
