Framed: 43 x 52 1/2 x 5 3/4 in.

This artwork is in generally poor condition. Significant deposits of surface dirt, dust, and grime; craquelures throughout, with multiple areas of lifting and tenting paint, primarily within the sky; frame abrasions along the left edge; under a very discolored varnish layer. Under UV light: the thick varnish layer prohibits a clear understanding of the inpainting; however, there appears to be small to medium spots of inpainting throughout the sky and water; an area of inpainting in the sails of the central boat; and a larger area in the center left, within the mountainside; the signature appears to have been strengthened. Additional images available upon request.

The physical condition of lots in our auctions can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration/repair. All lots are sold "AS IS," in the condition they are in at the time of the auction, and we and the seller make no representation or warranty and assume no liability of any kind as to a lot's condition.

The absence of a posted condition report on the Freeman's website or in our catalogues should not be interpreted as commentary on an item's condition. Prospective buyers are responsible for inspecting a lot or sending their agent or conservator to inspect the lot on their behalf, and for ensuring that they have requested, received and understood any condition report provided by Freeman's.
