Description
- Galileo Chini
- adam and eve
- Oil on canvas
- 169 x 94cm
Condition
The canvas is not lined. There is a layer of milky varnish preventing UV light from fully penetrating, however UV examination reveals a spot of retouching (approx. 1.5cm) to the left of Eves proper left elbow and some further florescence that seems to pertain to the uneven varnish. There are some fine lines of craquelure to the lower right quadrant. This work is in overall good condition and could benefit from a clean.
