Christian Albrecht Jensen, Danish 1792-1870- Portrait of a gentleman, bust-length, wearing a double-breasted blue coat; oil on canvas, signed and indistinctly dated 'Jensen p / 1831[?]' (centre right), 27.5 x 21.6 cm. Provenance: Private Collection, UK. Note: Jensen was a Danish artist active in the first half of the 19th century, a period which is generally celebrated as the ‘Golden Age of Danish painting’. In his capacity as a portrait painter, he depicted a number of significant figures, including the Danish author Hans Christian Anderson. The present work exemplifies Jensen's approach, with the contrast between the dark, plain background and the sitter's well-lit face, white hair, and sparkling eyes drawing the viewer's attention towards the male subject, imbuing him with a strong sense of character and presence. The small scale of the work further encourages a closer engagement and dialogue between sitter and viewer. 品相报告: Please refer to department for condition report
