In generally good overall condition apart from areas of uneven/residual varnish; there is some generally slight scattered retouching and some abrasions to panel, along with some rubbing of surface from the frame, notable at lower left. Craquelure commensurate with age present throughout. Accretion present on board at upper left. Small loss to paint present at lower left. Under UV a heavy varnish over foreground inhibits thorough read. Please see specialist photos for details

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.
