Cesare Maggi

Galleria Fogliato, Torino

Ad un primo esame si nota una sottile felatura orizzontale di cm 10 circa in alto a sinistra, una verticale di cm 1 circa appena sopra l'albero a sinsitra, una mancanza di cm 0.8 x 0.3 circa vicino al bordo destro al centro (tutte visibili da immagine pubblicata in catalogo). L'esame alla lampada di Wood evidenzia vernice fluorescente distribuita omogeneamente sulla superficie. L'oprea si presenta in ottimo stato di conservazione. From a first hand inspection a thin horizontal crack (cm 10 circa) is visible on the left hand side, a vertical one (cm 1 circa) over the tree on the left hand side and a loss (cm 0.8 x 0.3) on the right hand side edge in the centre (all visible from the image in the catalogue). The ultra violet light reveals fluorescent varnish homegeneously spread over the surface. The overall condition as to the state of preservation is excellent.
