Portrait of a Young Boy

Estimate $700 - $1,000
Some cracking throughout but seems to have been stabilised. Two tears have been repaired in the upper section (can be seen verso). Cannot be noticed from front and do not detract from the overall enjoyment of the work. After examination under UV light, retouching can be seen in hair, face and collar. The frame is in fair condition, with some losses at base.
