Circle of David Teniers (1610-1690) Flemish Tavern scene with figures music making Oil on...

In fully restored condition, cleaned and re varnished. There are a small number of fine scratches which have been re-touched within the lower left hand corner, with delicate and very sporadic infilling to paint which has flaked away in the upper area. Odd element of strengthening to such as the outline of the instrument, table frame etc. There is a very tiny nick surface to the heel of the gentleman on the left hand side seated playing music. Light surface dirt. Sound panel.
