Product Description
This unmatched pair of antique oil portraits is from the 19th century, which shows extraordinary art and historical attraction. Both works depict reputable gentlemen in formal dress, presented with excellent detailing that reflects the elegance of the time.
The first piece is an oil on canvas, possibly original European, possibly military or official in context. The rear "Stober Pinxit 1838" marking suggests a German, Austrian, or Swiss artist, as Latin inscriptions were common in these areas in the early 1800s. It is presented in an original Biedermeier ebonized wooden frame with a gold inner slip, consistent with early 19th-century craftsmanship.
The second image is a unique oil on tin panel, which depicts a gentleman in formal Northern European dress. The magnificent detail indicates an early 19th-century origin. The elegant rosewood veneer frame enhances its sophisticated appeal, making it a true collector’s piece.
Together, these oil portrait paintings provide a harmonious yet contrasting visual experience, perfect for elevating any interior space, grand staircase, boutique, or retail setting. They are sold as a pair, though individual sales are possible upon request.
