38 x 48cm
*Artist's Resale Right may apply to this lot.
Estimated at £1,500 - £2,000
Condition report:
The picture appears to be inscribed on the reverse '1906', not '1904' as inscribed in the catalogue and is oil on board, not as indicated in the catalogue. There is some craquelure in parts where the paint is starting to detatch a little from the board. Covered with a thick layer of varnish which makes any reading under UV light difficult. There is, however, a vertical repaired scratch to the right of the tail whichhas corresponding retouching visible.
