This work has some spotting and staining throughout, mostly noticeable in the sky. There is a dark mark in the upper right corner. There does appear to be some discolouration and some minor waving to the paper.
The frame is in good and stable condition with minor signs of wear consistent with age and use. The mount has extensive foxing and would benfit from being replaced. The inside of the glass has mould as well and should be cleaned.
Please note that this work was not removed from the frame in order to conduct this condition report.
The opinions expressed in the condition reports are a guide only and should not be treated as a statement of fact. Prospective buyers are encouraged to inspect articles for sale at our pre-sale viewing where Leonard Joel staff are available for advice.
