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。
This report was prepared by Simon Parkes Art Conservation Inc.:
This painting is unlined. The tacking edges have been reinforced for proper stretching. The paint layer is stable and not abraded, but during its journey from the Saturday Evening Post to a private collection numerous small losses occurred. Under ultraviolet light examination, the largest of the restorations is visible in the sky in the center of the picture and in the trees in the center. There are also retouches to isolated paint losses in the remainder of the picture that can be seen under ultraviolet light. Otherwise, there is no discoloration to the paint layer. The painting looks well and should be hung as is.
