Portrait of an unknown.
 

Hello
I want to show a portrait of a respected connoisseurs.
This oil on canvas, size 40 x 50 cm, 19th century.
Signatures, unfortunately, no.
Maybe someone will recognize the picture?
And suddenly it's some famous historical figure?

Any known historical figure to me personally he did not like.

By type of painting - the second third of the 19th century, maybe the third quarter (there should compare the costumes).

may be a professor, perhaps commoner, and even cultural poshiba small merchant.

TUNER, a portrait of France?

Registered a coat of arms on the Cygnet?

Not sure exactly what about France, but from Europe. Have you thought about someone in France? On the third ? Hmm, I have the same idea was

Yesterday was a communication problem , not able to enter and sign . Monogram . I could not find one in the directory. . One hope for your forum and its experts. .

At Cygnet not seen anything concrete . It seems to be some kind of outline , but not clearly

That's the costume I'd previously dated (1830?), But not exactly say.
Need to browse through the book.
And the fashion for the type of beard will help dating.

Initials, as I understand it, "LK"?


The artist is not from the first series, but relatively good.


In addition.

The letter K - very rare for the French language.

Mostly - it is only borrowed words.
