Translation provided by Youdao
Unsigned pastel half portrait of wearing a black coat & hand holding his lapel. Housed in a period black painted wood frame with gold liner behind glass. On verso is a copy of the conservation report by The Conservation Center for Art & Historic Artifacts, Philadelphia & dated 2004. NOTE: Williams’ method of mounting his works was unique. He affixed the back of the picture to newspaper and attached that to a frame which, in turn, was backed with more newspaper. The conservator has preserved the newspaper and it is mounted on verso. The preceding lot is the mate which presumably is the wife & child. SIZE: Sight: 24″ x 21″. Overall: 29″ x 26″. CONDITION: Restoration as noted in the conservation report, very good. 52283-2 (3,000-5,000)
