Venus mourning the death of Adonis

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 painting presents well, it appears to have undergone conservation in the recent past and requires no further intervention. The canvas has a recent glue lining and is very taut on its stretcher. The paint surface is clean beneath a clear, fresh varnish with a fine, if somewhat pronounced craquelure pattern.

Inspection under UV reveals some small restored and retouched holes or tears in the background, one in the thigh of the male figure and in the shoulder, hip and lower torso of the female figure. There is a small restored loss to her chin and finer retouching to the chest and arm of the male figure.

The painting is ready to hang in its present state and is offered in a decoratively carved gilt wood frame.
