Description

Follower of George Henry Harlow

Portrait of a lady, three-quarter length, seated in a landscape
oil on canvas, unframed
112 x 83.5cm



The painting is executed in oil on a linen canvas support which has been lined. The reverse of the lining canvas has water staining at the right hand side. Old damages and tears have been secured through the lining. Damages have been filled and retouched. In some areas, notably the horizontal line above the sitter’s head, the fill has cracked and is lifting. There are a few scattered losses across the surface. The varnish layer is matte and dull with a light layer of surface dirt present.
