Object Description
The Irish school depiction of a smart young boy in oils on board, of around eight to ten of years of age, shown in bust length, presented in its original deep moulded gilded frame, the sitter with green eyes, rosy cheeks and a sweet smile, wearing dress very much of the period, with a prominent set of brass buttons to his jacket over a buttoned shirt and crevatte, the work apparently unsigned and surviving from the first quarter of nineteenth century Ireland.
