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。
Oil on board. Nailed to a stretcher at the extreme edges, from the time of execution. The upper edge of the board has come away from the stretcher. Minor frame abrasion with a few associated small paint losses and one or two small nicks in the board in places. A small loss in the board at the upper left corner and a fine pressure mark at the extreme upper left edge. Examined under ultra-violet light: there are two areas of fluorescence to the right of the woman's left foot and on the sheet at the left lower edge. Subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that the work appears to be in generally good condition.
The condition of lots sold can vary widely due to factors such as age, previous damage, restoration, repair, and wear and tear. The nature of the lots sold means that they will rarely be in perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.
