About the Item
A distinguished 19th-century portrait of a proud captain, pictured in his naval uniform. His assured gaze meets the viewer with quiet authority, commanding attention and respect.

Unsigned. Well presented in a substantial gilt frame. Acquired as a pair - the companion piece 'The Captain's Wife' is also for sale on our website (sk839). On canvas on stretchers.
