English School, early 18th century, oil on canvas laid on board - half length portrait of a Gentleman in red coat, painted within an oval, 74cm x 61cm, in period carved giltwood frameCondition report: The work has been stuck down on a piece of hardboard, some areas are not as flat as they could be. There are areas of overpainting and some scratching to the paint in the lower left corner. The frame has some losses. All that being said, the work still has a good look and could be hung straight away. Please see close up images to illtrate the issues.
