Condition report
A Christie's specialist may contact you to discuss this lot or to notify you if the condition changes prior to the sale.
The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.
The paintings present well in natural light, with the modeling of the sitters and the crispness of execution fully appreciable. The canvases have been relined; they are held under tension and remain stable. Both paintings carry some very minor scattered surface dirt. In natural light some very minor scattered points of retouching can be seen in the background above the head of the female sitter. Examination under UV light does not show any further retouching, though there is a cloudy varnish that precludes in depth examination.
