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。

The canvas has an old glue relining and is firm on its stretcher. The paint surface is stable and clean beneath a clear varnish with a craquelure pattern in keeping with its age. There is a minor retouched loss in the brown drapery of the standing figure lowered left and another minor filled retouched loss in the shubbery in the background upper right, both faintly visible to the nakey eye but not distracting.

Inspection under UV reveals very minor, finely applied retouching to the figures in the foreground, minor areas of retouching in the background shrubbery upper right and restoration on the upper left and upper edges. All of this has been sensitively applied.

The painting requires no further intervention and is ready to hang in its present state. Offered in an elaorately carved giltwood frame.
