No prizes for this one - but it's such a nice picture that is not well known. He's about 18 - in between Eton and Trinity, Oxford.

Ah m-m-m-m-mercia! Good to see posts from you (is it me, or had they become somewhat rare? )

Well the obvious moustachio'd conductor associated with the object in question would be Sir Henry Wood.... but I too can't see that little fellow as Sir HW! The moustache might be similar but even in holiday mode I can't imagine him dressing like an aging Neapolitan lothario (or shaving off his beard). I agree with ferney's guess, looks to me like one of those minor Italian verismo chaps.
