.The reverse of the board appears to have been damp at some stage and is covered in water marks. Covered in a thin layer of surface dirt. A number of losses within the turquoise paint to the upper left hand side edge, bottom edge and right hand side and within the purple paint to the upper right hand side edge. However some of these may be due to how the paint has been applied. Fine craquelure within the blue of the vase, the blue area of the flowers and the green paint of the lemon. Very slight bow to board.

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 prospective buyers to inspect an item in person where possible. Our Condition Reports are not prepared by professional conservators, restorers, or engineers, and are prepared with the naked eye unless otherwise stated.

Regarding Pictures, Prints and Works on Paper, works are not examined out of the frame, unless specifically stated. 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.

We accept no liability for the opinions expressed in any Condition Report.
