Significant staining across sheet with notable bleaching or fading to colour. Various foxing spots some of which look to have undergone some restoration or form of disguising particularly within the sky area above and behind the sitter's head. Diagonal creases approx centre left-hand side edge running full width of sheet but less notable toward right-hand side edge. Some further likely infilling with chalky white paint to disguise the creasing around the lower right-hand corner of the window within the sky. Further creasing to upper left-hand corner. Odd surface scuff. No evidence of cockling. Nor examined out of the frame.

We are happy to provide Condition Reports to Prospective Buyers, but would welcome your request as soon as possible, preferably at least 48 hours before the Day of Sale.

We cannot guarantee a reply to any requests made within 48 hours of the start of the auction. The absence of a condition report from a lot does not mean that the lot is in perfect condition.

 A Condition Report is an honest expression of our opinion, not a statement of fact and is provided as a service to the Seller. All lots are available on public view ahead of an auction and we encourage people to see an item in person when possible.

Our Condition Reports are not prepared by professional conservators, restorers or engineers, and are prepared with the naked eye unless otherwise stated.

 Works are not examined out of the frame, unless specifically stated. We accept no liability for the opinions expressed in any Condition Report.

Tennants Auctioneers do not cover damage to gilded wood or plaster picture frames, or to picture frame glass whilst the item is in our possession.
