Follower of Jacques-Louis David Portrait of a boy, bust length, in a black coat

oil on canvas, 46 x 38cm; framed 56.5 x 48.5cm, Sotheby's, London, Property from the Estate of the Late Sir Martin Wilson, Bt.', 1 November, 1991, lot 388 (part lot). Condition Report, Condition Report, Relined. Craquelure. A little thinning to the paint in places and some light surface dirt. Examined under UV light a few small scattered specks of retouching fluoresce strongly to the background and collar on the right side. Much of the surface is obscured by a layer of varnish, however some faint fluorescing is visible to the face and left collar which suggests some restoration may have been undertaken in these areas. Viewed under normal light there is some slight tonal variation in the colour of the paint used on the sitter's right cheek and to the forehead on the right side.
