Portrait Painting

The item is a framed painting depicting a portrait of a person. The subject is shown from the chest up, with dark, curly hair and a somewhat somber expression. The figure is wearing a blue garment with a light blue or grey draped collar. A dark line or necklace descends from the neck to the chest. The background is rendered in broad, expressive brushstrokes, featuring vertical bands of color including gold, orange, red, and brown. The figure itself is rendered with thicker, more defined lines and colors. The style appears to be somewhat abstract or expressionistic, with bold outlines and non-naturalistic skin tones (appears somewhat pale or greyish). The painting is housed in a simple, light-colored wooden frame with a slight metallic sheen, likely gold or brass-toned. The painting's condition appears to be consistent with its age, with visible brushstrokes and texture on the canvas. There are no immediately apparent signs of significant damage, such as tears or losses, from the provided image. The overall quality of the craftsmanship appears to be professional, demonstrating a deliberate artistic style and execution. The age is difficult to determine conclusively from the image alone but the style suggests it could be from the mid to late 20th century.
