Ubaldo Gandolfi
Portrait of an old man leaning on a stick
Oil on canvas, 56,2 x 45,2 cm
This magnificent study from life of a model in a pose, almost a “portrait” – albeit of an unknown sitter – depicted in accordance with the highest standards of a style rooted in the artist’s deepest sensitivity, is unquestionably by the great Bolognese painter Ubaldo Gandolfi, one of the foremost masters on the Italian art scene in the second half of the 18th century.
