An extensive landscape with a hunting party and spaniels chasing a hare
oil on canvas
88 x 147cm



Provenance:
Property of a collector, removed from Moggerhanger Park, Bedfordshire



Framed 102 x 163cm

The painting is executed in oil on a canvas support which has been lined. The canvas tension is slightly slack but the picture is generally in plane. In the upper left corner are minor undulations due to old tears. Stretcher bar marks are evident in the paint layers. The paint layer is stable overall. There are scattered areas of retouching across the surface which are well matched to the original. The varnish is even, semi-glossy and slightly yellowed but acceptable. There is a light layer of surface dirt present.
