Old portrait of a man circa 1920, oil on canvas by Auguste Barthon.

Beautiful oil on canvas depicting a man sitting at a table, dating from the 1920s, by the French painter Auguste Barthon (1878-1939). The painting is unsigned, but it has a workshop stamp on the back, originating from an auction of the artist's studio estate on 13 April 2003. This work exudes great simplicity, perhaps even a sense of rurality: one imagines the end of a meal, the table not yet completely cleared, with a baguette and a blown glass carafe remaining, a white cotton tablecloth, and the gaze of this man who appears thoughtful. It is in its original condition, with signs of age and wear; the paint is chipped in places. All details are visible in the photos, please examine them closely as they are part of the product description! Keep in mind that this is an old painting, and its marks and imperfections make it a unique piece with a story! Dimensions: 43 cm high / 33 cm long. Weight: 537 grams. This portrait will fit into any interior! It will look magnificent in a contemporary decor or a more classic setting. Any further questions. Please feel free to contact me!.
