oil on panel
40.5 x 58.5cm



Condition report:

Oil on a wooden panel formed from a single board with a horizontal woodgrain with a vertical addition at the right hand edge. The panel is reinforced by two vertical battens which are slotted into channels at the reverse. The panel is in plane and in a good condition. The vertical join is apparent in the paint layer but stable. There are a few woodworm exit holes present in the support but this does not appear to be active. The paint layer is in a good condition overall. Areas of overpaint are present, mainly reinforcing the outlines of the figures and animals in the composition but also covering the join and areas in the background. The varnish is even and semi-glossy.
