The Death of Adonis

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。

The canvas is reinforced on the reverse with a wax lining. The paint is stable on the support and the varnish is generally clear, if slightly yellowed. A fine craquelure is visible in natural light. Scuffing due to frame abrasion is visible along the lower edge. Inspection under ultraviolet light reveals strengthening in the sky, particularly to reinforce the contours of the clouds at upper left and the foliage at upper right. Further areas of retouching fluoresce in the foreground, with comparatively few areas of intervention in the figures. The painting appears to be in very good condition and should be displayed in its current state.
