A Christie's specialist may contact you to discuss this lot or to notify you if the condition changes prior to the sale.

This condition report was prepared by Simon Parkes Art Conservation, Inc.:
This work has never been restored. The heavy paint layer has cracked. Although this cracking has not led to instability as yet, it will sooner than later. The work should be treated to secure the paint layer, either by lining or impregnating the reverse with a non-acidic adhesive. The work has never been cleaned or varnished, and no losses or retouches are apparent.
