Charles Suan (French, 1810-1879)
Gentleman with His Gun and Dog in a Landscape
Oil on canvas

Signed and dated 1839 lower right. 18 x 15 inches (46 x 38 cm), the frame 22 x 18 inches (56 x 46 cm). Period gilt frame with carved corner ornaments. Old restorations, small losses to the gilding.

The gun is doing nothing. Its stock rests on the ground against his leg and the barrel rises to his right hand, while he leans back on a mossy rock with his other hand on his hip and a pair of white gloves held in it.

He wears a dark frock coat, a pale grey waistcoat buttoned high, fawn trousers and a black stock at the throat, and his top hat sits on the rock behind him. A white and liver pointing dog sits at his feet on the right and looks off out of the picture. Behind them the ground falls away to a plain with a glint of water, under a sky worked in heavy grey with one break of blue.

Condition report

GoodThis painting

Stable. Signs of age or earlier restoration are visible on close inspection, such as small retouches or a slightly yellowed varnish. The overall appearance is intact.

Other grades

Very good

Stable. Only minor, old retouches or very small losses, not distracting at normal viewing distance. The canvas may have been relined or cleaned in the past.

Fair

Stable and ready to hang, but wear or earlier restoration is noticeable at normal viewing distance, such as visible retouching, a discoloured varnish or scattered small losses.

Needs conservation

Visible damage a conservator should treat, such as flaking, a tear, larger losses or heavy old repaint. Every issue is shown in the photographs.
