Lot 112

JOHN PERCEVAL (1923-2000)
Evening in the Woods c.1966
oil on board
signed lower left: Perceval
60 x 90cm

Estimate $10,000 - $15,000

Sold for $8,500

Heavy surface dust/dirt build up present on surface, as expected given the heavy application of paint and highly textured finish. Frame veneer is in very delicate condition with multiple losses on the bottom. The veneer is unstable and will likely continue to break away, therefore having the work reframed is recommended.


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.
Leonard Joel makes no guarantee of the originality of mechanical or applied components. Absence of reference to such modifications does not imply that a lot is free from modifications.
