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。

In good order and appearance with general wear and some discoloration to the miniature from age. It is signed on the lower edge/ truncation of the bust portrait and the signature is visible in the online catalogue images. Please note, the miniature has not been examined outside its frame. There is some dust which has gotten into the frame between the glass. Please note that Christie's does not guarantee the condition of the frames, which is structurally sound and ready to use, but with general wear and small losses throughout. The online catalogue images are accurate.
