Description

Jan van Huchtenburg (Dutch, 1647-1733) A Cavalry Skirmish near a wood in an extensive landscape oil on canvas 61 x 74cm (24 x 29in)

Oil on canvas which is lined. There is an old horizontal tear in the upper left in the sky. There are a few scattered paint losses along the lower edge but overall the paint layer is in a good condition. The varnish is degraded, matte and very yellowed. Beneath the varnish there are retouchings, but it is difficult to see the extent of the overpaint due to the darkened varnish. There are a few losses to the decorative moulding on the frame.
