oil on canvas laid down on board

Condition Report

This oil on canvas board has been mounted onto another piece of board, probably by the artist. The second piece of board is slightly curved from left to right, but this can easily be corrected in the frame. The paint layer is in very good condition. There are small losses on the bottom left edge and in the lower left corner. The upper right and upper left corners show small damages, and there are a couple of spots above the figures head. Under ultraviolet light, there are two or three small retouches visible on the left side of the torso, but the work is otherwise in beautiful state. A small amount of restoration would bring the picture back to excellent condition. (This condition report has been provided courtesy of Simon Parkes Art Conservation, Inc.)
In response to your inquiry, we are pleased to provide you with a general report of the condition of the property described above. Since we are not professional conservators or restorers, we urge you to consult with a restorer or conservator of your choice who will be better able to provide a detailed, professional report. Prospective buyers should inspect each lot to satisfy themselves as to condition and must understand that any statement made by Sotheby's is merely a subjective qualified opinion.
NOTWITHSTANDING THIS REPORT OR ANY DISCUSSIONS CONCERNING CONDITION OF A LOT, ALL LOTS ARE OFFERED AND SOLD "AS IS" IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CONDITIONS OF SALE PRINTED IN THE CATALOGUE.
