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 canvas, stretcher and attachments appear to be in generally good condition. There is some minor rubbing to all corners. There are a few minor hairline cracks in places - to the lower left quadrant in the dark green passage, to the upper extreme right vertical edge and to the upper left corner. There are a few very fine drying craquelure in places, in keeping with the artist’s chosen medium. There are a couple of very faint scuff marks to the lower centre in the white. When examined under ultraviolet light, there is no indication of inpainting. Subject to the foregoing, it is our view that the work appears to be in generally good condition.
