拍品的状况可能存在极大差异,而由于其性质使然,拍品难以处于完美无瑕的状态。拍品均以拍卖时的状况出售。
The first:
The canvas is supported with a glue lining. The paint is stable on the support. Under natural light, the varnish is clear and a fine craquelure is visible in places. There is slight scuffing at the extreme edges due to frame contact, as well as additional scuffing at the lower right edge, to the right of the tree trunk. Ultraviolet light examination reveals a few retouches along the upper edge and by the figures in the foreground but overall the painting seems to be in good condition.
The second:
The canvas is supported with a glue lining. The paint is stable on the support. Under natural light, the varnish is clear and a craquelure is visible in places, particularly the lower left corner. A few vertical scratches are visible over the trees at upper center. A 1/4 inch loss is visible at the extreme upper edge, near the center (likely due to frame contact). Ultraviolet light reveals some scattered retouches along the upper edge and over three, approximately 2 inch lines around the fountain. Two additional 1 inch areas fluoresce in the lower corners. Overall, the painting seems to be in good condition.
Both works could be displayed as is.
