Portrait of Mrs Thatcher (1925-2013), bust-length, wearing a frilled shirt

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.

Overall the painting is in good condition. The oils remain clear and strong and the support is stable. There is some surface dirt visible, especially in the lower quarter of the work. There is some slight bowing to the board, evident in the upper right hand corner. Please note that this painting has not been examined out of the frame or under UV light. For further information please contact the department.
