About this lot

Description

Figures conversing by a cottage gate
signed or inscribed and dated 'G Morland/ 1792' (lower right)
oil on canvas
29.5 x 41cm



The painting is executed in oil on a canvas support which appears to be lined. The tacking edges are coming loose from the tacks and the canvas tension is poor. There is a thick layer of dirt and mould on the reverse. The paint layers are generally stable, although there are a few scattered losses. The varnish is thick and glossy with a layer of dust across the surface.

47 x 58cm framed
