American Art and Pennsylvania Impressionists

The wax-lined canvas in overall good condition. With a few areas of inpainting along the right outer edge of the canvas, at upper right, center right and the bottom right corner. Otherwise, the composition appears untouched, save for a few fluorescing dots which are due to the pigments used by the artist - not a sign of restoration. We notice a few lines horizontal scuffs (minor) above the sitter's head, in the fabric background. All are easily removable, and not at all detrimental to the condition of the work (they can be cleaned off). See Specialist's pictures for more details. 

The physical condition of lots in our auctions can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration/repair. All lots are sold "AS IS," in the condition they are in at the time of the auction, and we and the seller make no representation or warranty and assume no liability of any kind as to a lot's condition. Any reference to condition in a catalogue description or a condition report shall not amount to a full accounting of condition. Condition reports prepared by Freeman's staff are provided as a convenience and may be requested from the Department prior to bidding.

The absence of a posted condition report on the Freeman's website or in our catalogues should not be interpreted as commentary on an item's condition. Prospective buyers are responsible for inspecting a lot or sending their agent or conservator to inspect the lot on their behalf, and for ensuring that they have requested, received and understood any condition report provided by Freeman's.
