This painting is clean and possibly very lightly varnished. The paint layer is stable. The board on which it is painted is flat and unbroken. There are two retouches to the right of the figure on the swing, and three other tiny spots of retouch to the right of the steel bars in the upper right. The work is otherwise in perfect state and can be hung as is.
In response to your inquiry, we are pleased to provide you with a general report of the condition of the property described above. Since we are not professional conservators or restorers, we urge you to consult with a restorer or conservator of your choice who will be better able to provide a detailed, professional report. Prospective buyers should inspect each lot to satisfy themselves as to condition and must understand that any statement made by Sotheby's is merely a subjective qualified opinion.
