Description

  • Adriaen Hendricksz. Verboom
  • A wooded landscape with travellers on a sandy path 
  • signed lower left: AV
  • oil on canvas

Provenance

The Honorable Robert Digby (according to a label on the reverse). 

Condition

The canvas has been relined, the paint surface is slightly dirty, and the varnish is even. There are small white surface accretions in the foliage, lower centre - visible in the catalogue illustration. Inspection under ultraviolet reveals a milky varnish, beneath which it is difficult to discern previous restoration - the clouds, upper right, have perhaps been strengthened slightly, and there is sensitive retouching in the foliage of the trees to reduce the appearance of craquelure. In overall very good condition.
