拍品的状况可能存在极大差异,而由于其性质使然,拍品难以处于完美无瑕的状态。拍品均以拍卖时的状况出售。
The canvas, stretcher and attachments are in generally good condition. There is minute rubbing to the extreme four corners, with associated points of paint loss, the largest of which measuring 0.5cm. in diameter. There are a few scattered faint hairline drying cracks in places. There are a few hairline superficial surface abrasions to the lower left quadrant, visible under raking light. There is some minor rubbing and associated accretion to the centre. When examined under ultra-violet light, the work fluoresces unevenly, but not in a manner consistent with inpainting. It is our view that the work appears to be in generally very good condition.
