The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.
Each executed on board and stable on its support. The edges of the board uneven and some areas bending slightly, but does not comprise the integrity of the picture. Each with minor surface soiling and frame abrasion to the extreme edges. Each with tiny pinholes near the edges, inherent to the piece. With scattered tiny pigment losses, primarily to the edges. Each with some scattered fine lines of craquelure. Inspection under ultraviolet light reveals some touch-ups to the edges to address the aforementioned frame abrasion. The works can be hung in their present state and are offered with square carved giltwood frames. Please note that Christie's does not guarantee the condition of frames.
