拍品的状况可能存在极大差异,而由于其性质使然,拍品难以处于完美无瑕的状态。拍品均以拍卖时的状况出售。
The first (Warlock) and last (Tomboy) appear to have been lined. The other canvas are unlined. All are on the original stretchers which are providing good support. There is some craquelure visible to Gabriel, and to the right of Redrose.
Under UV light they appear as follows:
Warlock - there are scattered spots of infilling and reotuching mainly in the sky.
Tastewell - there are scattered spots of retouching in the sky.
Gabriel - there is some retouching to old frame abrasions at the left hand edge and a few spots of retouching in the sky.
Gallant - there is some retouching to old frame abrasions mostly at the lower edge, and one or two spots in the background.
Redrose - there are a few minor spots of retouching to the background and to some of the frame edges.
Tastety - no significant signs of damage or restoration visible.
Tomboy - there is an area of retouching to the left of the upper edge.
There are some minor losses to the green painted wood frames. Otherwise the pictures are ready to hang.
