ANDRÉ LHOTE | Dans l'entrée de la maison de Gordes

Acquired in Paris circa 1970

The work is in overall very good condition. The canvas is not lined. There is some hairline craquelure in places throughout, and there are horizontal stretcher bar marks in the center of the canvas. In the lower right corner, there are two circular spots in which the upper most layer of pigment has been worn away slightly. Under UV inspection, no inpainting is present.
