拍品的狀況可能存在極大差異,而由於其性質使然,拍品難以處於完美無瑕的狀態。拍品均以拍賣時的狀況出售。
There is a diagonal crack from the lower left edge of the painting up to the pocket watch in the sitter's hand. There is another crack from the centre of the right edge up to the face of the sitter. There are minor areas of repainting to the sitter's face and to the bolster above his right shoulder. There are small areas of craquelure visible in the top half of the painting concentrated near the top left and right edges. All four corners of the painting appear to have been possibly replaced and repainted.
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.
