European Furniture and Decorative Arts

Heavily repaired, with patches on the back which are more numerous around the sky where fraying occurred. The repairs probably date to the earlier 20th century. The tapestry is overall stable, but needs conservation and cleaning. Very faded colors. Scattered small separations and areas of fraying which need repair. Several water stains around the top border and one large water stain near the center top. Mostly intact from its original size, but probably reduced slightly or reduced by having lost its original border. Additional photos available upon request.

The physical condition of lots in our auctions can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration/repair. All lots are sold "AS IS," in the condition they are in at the time of the auction, and we and the seller make no representation or warranty and assume no liability of any kind as to a lot's condition. Any reference to condition in a catalogue description or a condition report shall not amount to a full accounting of condition. Condition reports prepared by Freeman's staff are provided as a convenience and may be requested from the Department prior to bidding.

The absence of a posted condition report on the Freeman's website or in our catalogues should not be interpreted as commentary on an item's condition. Prospective buyers are responsible for inspecting a lot or sending their agent or conservator to inspect the lot on their behalf, and for ensuring that they have requested, received and understood any condition report provided by Freeman's.
