Beautiful 17th century Tooled Leather Oil Painting mounted on board and our best hypothesis is that it is probably Spanish, with a second guess possibly being Dutch. What we do know from a local expert, is that the Putti or Cherub is close to 400-years old. The correct word I believe is actually Putto which is singular for Putti and depicts a chubby small child, typically male. The Putti painting or Cherub painting had some very minor restoration and came from the South of France near the Toulouse area.
