An oil on canvas painting of a young prince or son born of a noble family, 30" by 24 3/4", unframed, unsigned.

The painting was relined sometime in the mid 20th century. There are some scratches at upper right which appear as white marks in the photos, some minor edge losses at lower left, and there is an even craquelure over much of the surface.
